Our Activities
FLAME develops and supports activities that strengthen the safeguarding of living heritage while responding to today’s social, cultural, and environmental challenges.
Our work ranges from pilot and thematic projects – exploring topics such as urban contexts, mental health, or youth involvement – to collaborations with local and international partners, as well as workshops and seminars that build skills and foster exchange.
Working closely with a wide variety of stakeholders, FLAME’s programmes and training connect communities and NGOs, researchers, policymakers, and international organisations.
This page will grow alongside our work, sharing new projects, learning opportunities, and collaborations as they take shape.
