On 11 December 2015, at the Art Workshop Lazareti, EXPEDITIO representative, Aleksandra Kapetanović, held a presentation about the activities and projects of EXPEDITIO, focusing on heritage as a field of inspiration for the civil sector activity and involvement of citizens. The presentation was part of the project “Incubating Heritage”, realized within the process of nomination of Dubrovnik for the 2020 European Capital of Culture.
The project “Incubating Heritage” began with the activities on 11 and 13 December 2015. Through organizing city walks open to public it aims to promote the forgotten or neglected elements of heritage and to temporary open to the public buildings and gardens otherwise closed to public.
A series of lectures aims to present good practice examples from different countries, with emphasis on understanding heritage as a dynamic category closely connected with the life of community, in which it is essential to involve the public in the processes of decision-making, usage and management of protected buildings and areas.
