The European Heritage Hub is a two-year pilot project launched in May 2023 by a consortium of 20 partners, led by Europa Nostra and co-funded by the European Union, to set up a permanent and autonomous heritage hub in Europe.

The project brings together a large array of heritage stakeholders and initiatives, responding to the need for more structured cooperation and coordination at all levels of governance, from local to European and international. Using the green, digital and social triple transformation of Europe as the overarching theme for all its activities, the project builds the capacity for action and advocacy of the European heritage sector to support the transition towards a more sustainable, innovative and inclusive future.

The Hub has recently launched two new digital tools: the Heritage Library and the Policy Monitor.

• The Heritage Library is a digital repository offering a rich and multilingual collection of heritage-related materials, ranging from research papers, articles and case studies to audiovisual content. With advanced filtering options by category, document type, language, geography, and publication date, this platform aims to enhance accessibility and foster knowledge-sharing within the sector. You are encouraged to contribute your own resources via our submission form. Explore the Heritage Library here.
• The Policy Monitor is an online tool mapping out policies impacting cultural and natural heritage at EU, national and local levels. Users can navigate the developing policy landscape by using an interactive map and access dedicated country profiles spanning Europe. Beyond data collection, the Policy Monitor aims to analyse trends and identify regulatory gaps, with quarterly snapshots shared by our Policy Team. Visit the Policy Monitor here.

Both are now readily accessible, free of charge, and without registration requirements.
