Description

Description (EN):

The project ’’Skärgårdskultur’’ is based on a cross-border cultural cooperation which already existed during the latter part of the 1990s. The project’s goal was to strengthen the archipelago identity and to establish sustainable development for cultural workers active in the archipelago. Within the project an annual ’’cultural-conference’’ for the archipelago was organised. The conferences had 50–70 participants and constituted of workshop and networking meetings which also continued after the project was finalised. During the project, a distance study course in ’’archipelago knowledge’’ was created. The course included a number of cultural events that was meant to elevate the local archipelago culture. The main target group for the project was locally active cultural workers and administrators in the archipelago, and indirectly also the local population. In addition to this students and teachers in the archipelago schools, as well as representatives of local historic societies were engaged for various projects. The project also supported the creation of twin towns between municipalities in the archipelago region.
