HERO Toolkit for Professionals & Organisations
As part of the project, we developed a technical handbook on how to design and implement inclusive and environmentally sustainable restoration and new construction projects by training young craftspeople and incorporating historic building techniques. The handbook is aimed at heritage institutions and architectural heritage practitioners, and educators. It focuses on issues of pedagogical approach, drawing on contemporary approaches to adult education, presenting theoretical and practical tools for the design of educational processes and the inclusion of vulnerable social groups.
The H.E.R.O project was implemented under the Erasmus+ programme and was completed after 3 years (2021-2024) of transnational cooperation between 4 actors Acta Vista (France) leading partner, Bao Formation (France), Pour la Solidarite (Belgium), 4Grada Dragodid (Croatia), Boulouki (Greece).
The file is available in Greek, English, Croatian and French.

The following decrees were issued as a result of open dialogue, scientific exchange, and collective processing, as part of actions carried out by the Itinerant Workshop on Traditional Building Techniques “Boulouki” in collaboration with local authorities, scientific organizations, and collectives in the context of the Reappearances Project.
They address the protection, conservation, and sustainable management of cultural landscapes, with an emphasis on the use of local materials, dry stone construction, and the connection of material heritage with the contemporary needs of local communities. The texts reflect commonly accepted positions, proposals, and policy guidelines, highlighting the importance of traditional knowledge, participatory restoration, and the judicious use of natural resources.
