HERIT ADAPT Project
HERIT ADAPT “Heritage and territory resilience through sustainable Tourism, climate change adaptation and citizen engagement” is an EU funded project fostering cooperation among key stakeholders by activating Interdisciplinary Territorial Working Groups to co-design the data-driven HERIT ADAPT Sustainable Tourism Model. The HERIT ADAPT model will be tested in 9 pilot Euro-MED regions of different typologies, including UNESCO sites and lesser-known monuments in coastal, hinterland and mountainous areas. The Sustainable Tourism Model considers needs and visions, existing frameworks and plans and the global technology offer, enabling the use of existing tools and solutions and the valorization of transnational knowledge gained from other projects.
Sustainable tourism model
How can heritage sites grow without losing what makes them unique?
The HERIT ADAPT Sustainable Tourism Model offers a practical answer, helping destinations respond to overtourism and climate change while protecting their cultural and natural assets. Built on three interconnected pillars, it brings together assessment, collaboration, and adaptive action through a co-creation approach.
Across the Euro-Mediterranean region, 9 pilot sites bring this vision to life. Each one tells a different story of challenges, experimentation, and communities working together to shape more resilient and sustainable tourism.
