Stakeholder mapping for the European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage (ECCCH)

 White text on blue background that reads “Building a Cloud for CH - Mapping stakeholders' interest. Deadline: 1 July 2023.”

As part of writing a project application in response to the European Commission call (HORIZON-CL2-2023-HERITAGE-ECCCH-01-01), NEMO and the other consortium partners are collecting indications of interest for a stakeholder mapping until 1 July.

Organisations interested in being part of creating the core platform for the European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage (ECCCH) are welcome to indicate their interest. NEMO is hoping that several museums and museum organisations would like to contribute to ensure that the different needs of museums are thoroughly considered.

By submitting an indication of interest at this point, you are indicating that you are interested in contributing to the process with feedback and input as well as that you have an interest in benefiting from ECHOES’s future tools and services.

If you are interested, send a cover letter (1 page max.) describing your institution and your work on tangible and/or intangible cultural heritage to xavier.rodier@univ-tours.fr and sarah.daoud@univ-tours.fr.  

NEMO is part of a consortium that is writing an application for the European Commission call (HORIZON-CL2-2023-HERITAGE-ECCCH-01-01).  Our project proposal, called the European Cloud for Heritage OpEn Science (ECHOES), aims to create a platform for the ECCCH that includes both tangible and intangible cultural heritage.

The design of the ECCCH platform will be driven by the needs of Cultural Heritage (CH) stakeholders and backed up by a very solid technical consortium. Our goal is to provide an open-source platform supporting multiple media, services for data management, visualization, analysis, enrichment, preservation, and encoding data provenance through the recording of a wide and coherent semantic context. Our ultimate objective is to build a practical infrastructure that can help the work of CH professionals. We will strive to provide tools for building vertical specialized applications that by staying close to the stakeholders’ actual needs, workflows and practices will provide a significant added value in using the infrastructure.
