The commitment to social transformation and building a more sustainable society brought the project partners together once again for the second Re-Crafts<\/a> meeting, held in Cape Verde.<\/p>\n

With a focus on cultural heritage preservation, sustainable tourism and creative recycling, Re-Crafts promotes the integration of artisans from the participating countries, strengthening the exchange of knowledge and recognising the value of local craftsmanship.<\/p>\n

All partners shared the challenges encountered and the goals established for the project implementation period.<\/p>\n

The meeting brought together representatives from partner organisations in Portugal, Spain, Mozambique, Angola and Cape Verde, the host country, and was funded by the European Union\u2019s Erasmus+ programme.<\/p>\n
