  • Sustainable Tourism Guidelines

    The Dubrovnik Declaration adopted in September 2006 included an undertaking to "Promote sustainable cultural tourism as a crucial part of territorial economic development to include the development of cultural tourism guidelines for local and regional authorities". EAHTR has appointed Brian Human (former Head of Planning at Cambridge City Council) as one of a series of "experts" funded from the Culture 2008 programme to coordinate a working group in the preparation of guidelines on sustainable tourism.

  • Heritage Zone

    On - line networking opportunity for heritage experts engaged in the sustainable management of historic cities and cultural heritage. EAHTR’s principle aim is to identify and disseminate good practice in the sustainable management of historic cities. To do this it needs to facilitate and encourage collaboration and communication between expert practitioners in the field of cultural heritage – working in the public, private and voluntary sectors. Heritage Zone is seen as having the potential to make a major contribution to delivering this objective. The Heritage Zone website is currently under development – see www.heritagezone.net
