TRAMONTANA FORUM
\nSeptember 24th \u2013 27th, 2025
\nArsita (Teramo, Italy)<\/p>\n

The second International Forum of the European Tramontana Network project, dedicated to the intangible cultural heritage of European mountains, will take place in Arsita, in the Italian province of Teramo, from September 24th to 27th.<\/p>\n

Tramontana Network is an international creative and research network officially established on the occasion of an application to the European Union\u2019s Culture Program, which it was awarded in 2012 with a first project, the result of a long series of preparatory meetings held in Italy, in Abruzzo, and in France, in the Midi-Pyr\u00e9n\u00e9es region (later Occitania), between 2010 and 2011.<\/p>\n

Since then, it has gone through three further co-financing cycles in the Creative Europe Program\u2014the only project of its kind in Europe\u2014and has now expanded the network to eleven members from seven different countries, operating in Portugal (Binaural Nodar), Spain (Audiolab), France (R\u00e0dio Pa\u00eds, Num\u00e9riculture Gascogne, Eth Ostau Comeng\u00e9s), Italy (La Leggera APS, LEM-Italia, Bambun APS), Poland (Akademia Profil), Romania (Orma Sodalitas Anthropologica), and Albania (GO2 Albania), in addition to numerous associated partners from all the countries that take part in the project.<\/p>\n

The project, based on a strong multidisciplinary approach and diversity of approaches\u2014sociolinguistic, ethnolinguistic, anthropological, ethnomusicological, sound and visual art\u2014and tenaciously inspired by a strong cooperative spirit, has always had as its central objective \u201cthe documentation, processing, analysis, restitution, and dissemination, through innovative, participatory, and dynamic means, of the intangible cultural heritage of European rural and mountain societies,\u201d inspired by the principles set forth in the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage, adopted in Paris on October 17, 2003, by UNESCO, in the Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions (2005), both ratified by Italy in 2007, and in the Framework Convention on the Value of Cultural Heritage for Society of the Council of Europe (2005), known as the Faro Convention, ratified on September 23, 2020, by the Chamber of Deputies.<\/p>\n

After almost fifteen years of existence, Tramontana Network can be defined as a successful attempt at \u201cbringing together the languages and cultures that form the melting pot of Europe,\u201d as a dialectical model of knowledge refined in the concrete dimension of diversity, coexisting and maturing in the daily exercise of proximity, similar to those neighbors who, talking to each other \u201cin their respective gardens,\u201d offer \u201ceach other the produce of their gardens, exchanging plants and seeds.\u201d This is how the European Commission, through various bodies, has recently recognized this unique project: with its inclusion in 2018 among the Success Stories of Creative Europe, for its commitment to preserving Europe\u2019s intangible cultural heritage and involving local communities, for its innovative results and creative approach to cultural policies; through the award, in 2020, of the prestigious Grand Prix of the European Heritage Awards \/ Europa Nostra Awards for the \u201cresearch\u201d category, as best practice in the preservation of European intangible cultural heritage and \u201can excellent example of international cooperation between researchers with experience in different fields of study.\u201d<\/p>\n

The International Forum, coordinated by Bambun APS in collaboration with the LEM-Italia association, the Municipality of Arsita, and the Altofino Association, also supported by Itaca ETS, returns to Arsita (TE), in the upper Fino valley, where it was officially founded in the summer of 2011. In addition to an intensive series of internal working sessions, the Forum will have three public moments to report on its activities, also highlighting its twinning with another project supported by the Creative Europe Program in the province of Teramo, REVIVE, coordinated by Itaca ETS, whose objective is to develop and test solutions, approaches, and methodologies to support the revitalization of historic villages in decline through the experimentation of intercultural initiatives based on the enhancement of local cultural heritage sites.<\/p>\n
