The project activities are made with the purpose to enhance the presence of the cultural heritage in everyday lives of the young, just as their intensive participation in the processes of the conservation of cultural heritage via learning and comprehension of the cultural essence of diversities, thanks to the availibility of digital media among the young generations.

The project predicts three outcomes – the increased level of knowledge in the field of the conservation of cultural heritage with the focus on the preservation and restoration, which will be achieved by the creation of educational material adjusted to the young and the realisation of the workshops where the materially cultural heritage of the South – Bačka county and Csongràd – Csanàd county will be presented, along with the non – materially cultural heritage of Csongràd – Csanàd county, followed by the study trip where the models of conservation and restoration could be seen.
