Midland Region forms European Cultural Heritage Network


The Midland Regional Authority is among the founder members of the European Cultural Tourism Network (ECTN), a
newly-formed initiative to provide a platform for cooperation, shared research, and exchange of experience opportunities among professionals and public bodies involved in tourism and cultural industries in different European regions. The network's establishment follows upon the core partners' involvement in an INTERREG 3C project to provide guidance towards best practice in the development, management and promotion of Cultural Tourism, based on case studies,research and experience.

ECTN's areas of interest to date include training, better integration between the tourism and culture sectors, and providing coherent representation for the interests of cultural tourism in relations with the European Commission and other networks. Network membership is open to other regions and organisations. ECTN's inaugural annual conference, 'Culture with a twist - new ways of thinking about cultural tourism', will take place in Turku, Finland on 23-24 September.
