crossmark logo

Abstract

This paper focuses on how to give value to the cultural context of a specific territory by engaging local communities in a process of knowledge and non-formal education. Starting from the recommendations of the Faro Convention, this paper investigates heritage walks as a possible practice to create cultural, social, and economic value. The main aim is to propose a new methodology that may consider the positive effects of the planning phase on the realization of heritage walks, making heritage walks the result of a creative process of cooperative learning.
