Background
The Atlantic Culturescape project was launched in 2019 and co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) under the INTERREG Atlantic Area programme.
This programme promotes transnational cooperation among 36 Atlantic regions within six European countries and co-finances projects in the fields of Innovation & Competitiveness, Resource Efficiency, Territorial Risks Management, Biodiversity and Natural & Cultural Assets.
