CultSense has released the first number of CultSense Insights. This issue encapsulates the work, initiatives, videos and opportunities that the CultSense project is creating. CultSense is an Erasmus+ project which is aimed at sensitizing young travellers so that they understand and respect better the local norms, values, beliefs and cultures of the places they visit. In doing so, the project strives to alleviate mobility pressures and tensions between locals and travellers.
CultSense Insights provides a compact overview of the news related to the initiative. Among other things it features the CultSense Talks!, a monthly interview series spotlighting a tourist, a traveller, a local, a student, or a professor. This time they spoke to dr. Silvia Aulet from the University of Girona about CultSense and its partners.
The issue also highlights the project’s presence at the ATLAS Annual Conference (7-10 September 2021) during which it co-hosted ‘Special Track 6: Challenges and New Solutions for Tourism Education’ and gave three presentations addressing themes of sensitive travelling, young travellers’ experience of local cultures and war tourism. Among the presenters were Lénia Marques, Siri Driessen and Fianne Konings from the Erasmus School of History, Culture and Communication (ESHCC). More about this and the other activities of CultSense can be read in the full number.
