Description
Description (EN): The project aims to enhance cultural cooperation between institutions in the Counties of Szabolcs-Szatmar-Bereg and Satu Mare, on both sides of the Romanian-Hungarian border thus contributing to the preservation and dissemination of the shared local cultural, historical and archaeological heritage.Partners face common challenges in both countries and they intend to jointly tackle the difficulties that lie in the gathering of archaeological evidence, conservation and promotion of cultural heritage, and the provision of information to the benefit of researchers and the general public alike.The main objective of the project is to implement new, digital solutions for a dual purpose: to provide access to digitized cultural heritage, especially archaeological data sources and collections, thus disseminating knowledge about the Szatmar/Satu Mare region’s history and culture and to strengthen cross-border cultural and institutional cooperation. The planned activities will enhance the intensity of the current level of cross-border cultural cooperation and contribute to the preservation of shared cultural assets.Within this cross-border cooperation project the partners will develop and implement a database of cross-border research data. Cultural events such as scientific conferences and workshops will be organized jointly with the participation and contribution of every partner. Publications will also be included among the main outputs: monographies, cultural and historical guides, trilingual brochures will be published. Virtual and physical exhibitions will be organized in both countries.The main beneficiaries of the project will be the individuals interested in local history and culture and archaeological research, be they experts working in any field of culture or the general public interested in learning more about the topics touched on. The database will be an asset for students in the secondary and tertiary education, but schoolchildren attending elementary school will also benefit from the program, as the project involves organization of excavation and field research-related programs for them. Trainings will also be provided during which the participants can learn about complex methods of data gathering, processing and digitizing and about the database itself and its practical use.For the implementation of such archaeological, historical and cultural activities a cross-border approach is needed because the two participating counties have a lot in common: not only are they geographically connected, forming one unit, but they also share cultural and historical assets. To be able to create a complex database containing relevant data from both counties the cooperation between cultural institutions from both counties is essential.To reach the visitors of the digital age new approaches must be applied, new paths must be taken. Our project takes such new paths by implementing a digital model of public collections. We will provide access to our common cultural heritage through the two compatible museum databases containing the existing archaeological data we already possess and the data we will process after new discoveries made by participating in joint field research.
Read more Achievements (EN): Achieved:
1) General public and higher education&research institutions better informed about Szatmar/Satu Mare region’s history and culture, through new digital solutions implemented, workshops, professional applications, cultural guides, brochure, etc.
All the implemented activities allowed the promotion of relevant regional attractions and contributed to the preservation of shared cultural assets and strengthened cross-border cultural and institutional cooperation.
2) The 2 compatible museum databases developed on both sides of the border (of approx. 1700 records and 2500 documents) provide state-of-the-art solutions for museums in order to effectively use the technology of modern era, and to be competitive in both professional and tourism spheres.
Finalized:
1) Developed digital model for public collections (joint digital model for effective and competitive museums);
2) Practical applications of digital museums (through cooperation between professionals and by involving culturally aware citizens);
3) Expanded conventional museums into the virtual sphere (through attractive new exhibitions and conferences).
4) 4 professional workshops ( focusing also on the issues of new trends and opportunities in ICT, virtual and digital applications in museums and public collections.) ,3 cultural guides, 2 monographs, 2 professional international publications, 1 database-related training for 20 participants, 1 practical training with site visits and field work for 30 participants and 1 brochure.
5) 2 travelling exhibitions (focusing on the holographic presentation), 1 virtual exhibition, equipped permanent local exhibition in Vetiş (Satu Mare County) and a film presenting the opportunities created by the new databases
6) 2 international conferences (one in Nyíregyháza-Geszteréd and one in Satu Mare, with 40-40 participants)
7) Complex, microregional exploration, intrusive prospection, geophysical research, analysis of materials and cross-border archaeological field research

Expected Results (EN): R11/b Intensity level of cross-border cooperation
Expected Outputs (EN): The programme result indicator is the intensity of cross-border cooperation. The project is implemented with the involvement of 6 partners, 3 from the Hungarian and 3 from the Romanian side. The activities carried out in cooperation serve a dual purpose – an external with the aim of achieving the set goals by producing the planned outputs, and an internal one with the main goal of fostering cross-border cooperation between institutions and citizens. The project will improve the intensity of cross-border cooperation in the following ways:
- The six partners involved will have at least 4 physical meetings during the implementation, in the form of professional workshops, where experts from all sides come and share ideas and experiences. However, the coordinated process of design, piloting and roll-out will require much more frequent virtual meetings as well, in the form of emails and phone conferences. Cooperating partners mutually support each-other by know-how transfer.
- All meetings and interactions will be documented: memos will be prepared and stored for each personal and virtual meeting of project partners, while the web server will file all online communication between local actors.
- Throughout WP T2 and T3, numerous publications will be produced, as well as significant development in the presentation and attraction of cultural heritage sites and collections at all 6 partners. These, together with the coordinated communication activities of the project, will generate new cross-border cultural tourism visits.
- The cooperation of partners, the professional evets and training program incorporated into the project actually creates an integrated local pool of experts and cultural managers, with a potential to sustain and expand the project results, generating even more cross-border interaction in the future.
