The NICHE 2 partners met in Brussels for the project's fourth international project meeting. The meeting was hosted by the IHF \u2013 Institut de Haute Formation aux Politiques Communautaires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The partners from across Europe met at the meeting to review the project's progress and coordinate the next steps as the project nears its conclusion. The aim NICHE 2 \u2013 Nurturing Intangible Cultural Heritage for Entrepreneurship<\/strong>p<\/em> \u2013 is to enhance the skills and competence of professionals and entrepreneurs working in the field of intangible cultural heritage, with a special focus on green and digital transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the main topics of the meeting was Work Package 4 \u2013 the pilot testing, validation and update of the NICHE website. Partners discussed the implementation of the pilot test, where the NICHE 2 educational materials are tested and evaluated with the participation of representatives from the project's target groups. The updated NICHE web platform plays a key role in this process, offering an accessible digital environment for training, networking, and the dissemination of knowledge and good practice among intangible cultural heritage practitioners and other stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Special emphasis was also placed on Work Package 5 \u2013 the exploitation and dissemination of the project's results, which IHF leads, and on the project's long-term sustainability.

The network's aim is to strengthen collaboration, the sharing of knowledge and good practice, and to create new opportunities for cooperation beyond the project's consortium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n NICHE 2 network<\/strong> is open to all interested institutions and stakeholders.
