The A.02.052/HERODOT “Tourism Uses of the Historic Environment. Know-How Transfer and Quality Management Practices at Regional and Local Level” is a transnational collaborative knowledge network between Greece and Italy, funded by C.I.P.Archimed IIIB. 

The Project aims to promote the Historic Environment as an agent for tourism within the Partners’ areas through the dissemination of best practices in the field of heritage management and tourism planning. 

The major planning task is to convert a range of diverse historic environments within the Project’s spatial intervention area into powerful heritage tourism attractors with acknowledged market value and sustainable uses. 

In order to promote placecentric heritage consumption, HERODOT has modelled a distinctive heritage typology for each Pilot Project. In order to make attractions accessible topotential visitors cluster stakeholders together with HERODOT decided to concentrate on a viable product at local level, the place mix.
