ATRIUM participates at the XI Congress of Euro-Mediterranean Inter-Cultural Dialogue, organised by the Libertas International University of Zagreb. Vice President of the ATRIUM Association, Irina Belušić Maggi', gave a speech entitled "Dissonant Croatian planned settlements: a tool for better understanding of common European heritage”.
The contribution focuses on ATRIUM's built heritage in Croatia, represented by the towns of Labin and Raša in Istria as well as by the town of Uble on the island of Lastovo. The value of the architecture lies not only in its rationalist and neoclassical style, but also in the urban matrix with residential areas based on the fascist principles of social hierarchy. By raising awareness of the importance of this heritage among Croatian experts, these planned settlements earned a central place in scientific research, which saved them from oblivion. Labin, Raša and Uble offer significant potential for the growth of the tourism sector in Croatia, to be experienced and examined especially by young Europeans and experts in this field.
From 1-3 October 2018, within the framework of the European project ATRIUM Plus (funded by the European Cross-Border Cooperation Programme "Italy-Croatia"), ATRIUM Forlì with the scientific support of the CAST (Centre for Advanced Studies in Tourism, University of Bologna) organises a three-day seminar 'How to deal with dissonant heritage' for tourist operators and teachers.
The project objectives are to create cultural-tourist routes addressed to young people and transform the participating cities and towns in destinations of educationsl visits and school excursions. Lead partner is the Municipality of Forlì (I), partners are the cities of Bari and Ferrara (I) and Labin (HR), as well as the University of Zadar (HR).
