European Heritage Days are mainly local initiatives that give inhabitants an opportunity to learn about the history of their nations and regions inhabited by them and arouse their sensitivity to treasures of nature and culture. In 2011 the thematic scope of programmes offered in almost 50 countries played a significant role in the improvement of the level of awareness among citizens.
The year 2011 was marked by the introduction of the Framework Convention of the Council of Europe on the value of cultural heritage for society, called alternatively the Faro Convention, on 1 July 2011; it is the first treaty containing a detailed definition of the conception of “common European heritage”.
The subject of the Wrocław forum in 2011 is: “Value the Heritage. European Heritage and Economic Development”. In modern society, guaranteeing the future of the heritage requires not only work on the part of professions and specialised administration, but also collective projects and joint responsibility that would engage the public sector, legal entities, voluntary workers and the entire civil society. The economic nature of the Wrocław forum should not be surprising if we take into account the current crisis that causes anxiety in many countries.
The discussion regarding the subject of the 4th European Heritage Forum will be continued in works of the Steering Committee for Culture, Heritage and Landscape (CDCPP) of the Council of Europe. EHDs reveal the importance of joint activities of the Council of Europe and the European Union for the purpose of experiencing the common European heritage in a more direct way and making life better for all of us.
