The EduCultCentre project aims to establish common spaces for cultural interactions, the protection and sustainable use of common cultural values as well as the expansion of tourist attractions in the Romanian-Hungarian border area. The project has 2 pillars complementing each other: the protection of existing and the creation of new common cultural values.
1) Protecting and promoting common cultural heritage: the Romanian-Hungarian Cross-Border Education Centre of Cultural and Historical Heritage in Debrecen and the Țării Crișurilor Museum in Oradea will ensure the joint protection and mutual presentation of cultural heritage as a catalyst for strengthening a common identity.
2) Knowledge sharing for creating new cultural values: the education centre and the Cultural Centre in Oradea will offer jointly organized workshops/trainings for RO and HU cultural institutions, actors, artists, cultural professionals and youth – the goal is to share the latest knowledge and foster innovation in every field of culture.
This dual approach contributes to the development of creative industries based on common traditions and cultural innovation. Strengthening cross-border and -cultural partnerships has a direct and measurable effect on the attractiveness of the border region – both during and after the implementation of the project. The activities foreseen will make a major contribution to conserving, protecting and promoting cross-border cultural heritage, ensuring its long-term sustainable use.

The partners of the project are:
- Municipality of Debrecen LP
- Csokonai Theatre
- Várad Cultural Magazine
- Muzeul Tarii Crisurilor
