The ECHOES Consultation aims to map diverse cultural heritage communities and understand their needs and expectations for the European Cultural Heritage Cloud.
Why participate?
Your insights will help:
- Develop a strategy for community building,
- Inform the design and technological framework of the Cloud,
- Identify additional stakeholders eager to contribute,
- Initiate collaborative activities within the community,
- Prepare new capacity-building initiatives for the next phases of the project.
How to get involved
The consultation will begin with an online questionnaire, followed by workshops, focus groups, and targeted interviews to ensure an inclusive and comprehensive approach.
As the first step, the questionnaire seeks to identify various heritage professionals and researchers and explore how they use digital tools in their daily work. The results will be used to guide the work in ECHOES to develop the Cloud infrastructure, tools and services as well as for training and community building.
The questionnaire will remain open until the end of April 2025.
Who can contribute?
The consultation is open to all cultural heritage stakeholders, including professionals, researchers, computer scientists/developers, umbrella organisations and institutions with a vested interest in the development and application of the Cultural Heritage Cloud. Your participation will be instrumental in shaping the future of digital cultural heritage.
