How can we preserve cultural heritage while preparing young people for the challenges of the 21st century? The EYES – Empower Youth, Explore Stories project, financed by Erasmus+, answers this question with an innovative approach: the creation of digital heritage tours designed by young people themselves.

The European project EYES (Exploring Youth Stories) is taking the next steps: With the newly published “Local Heritage Guide” and the launch of the first practical unit, we are bringing young cultural heritage to life. 

In today’s fast-moving world, it’s easy for generations to drift apart. The EYES project brings them back together through stories. As part of their Youth Heritage Investigations, young participants across five European countries are exploring their local heritage using three complementary research methods. Among these, oral history stands out for its power to connect people.
