The ECOHOMY project is an european project, falling within the framework ERASMUS+ programm and led by the Compagnie du théâtre des Chemins in partnership with BAAT (Bulgarian Association for Alternative Tourism) and the University of Grenoble-Alpes-Cermosem.
​
Launched in February 2020, the project focuses on the collection, the analysis and the enhancement of intangible cultural heritage (songs, legends, inhabitants' words) through artistic and cultural mediation.
ECOHOMY is a 4-dimensional project:
Training time
Public Tours Open to The Public
Sharing Training Tours
Meetings with inhabitants
ECOHOMY challenge to multiplicate meetings with inhabitants of 3 rural territories:
-
Baume and Drobie Valley in Ardèche (France),
-
Dryanovo region in the Rhodopes (Bulgaria),
-
the Val Venosta region in South Tyrol (Italy).
These meetings are intergenerational and real (no visio!): they are undertaken by young Europeans (French, Bulgarian, Italian) between the ages of 18 and 30. Curious about what rural life may have been in the past, about what it has become or what it will become in the future, these young people, supervised by the ECOHOMY team, set out on a quest for stories, stories, songs or legends.
Access to the blog which retraces the encounters with excerpts of life history, song and legend: https://www.polarsteps.com/EcohomyErasmus
All interviews are recorded and a reflection on the archiving work is under way with the Phonotheque of Heritage Sonores ofAuvergne Rhône Alpes : https://www.infrasons.org/
