On 21st-24th September the city of Venice hosted the 2021 edition of the European Cultural Heritage Summit. The Venice Summit offered a platform to celebrate excellence in cultural heritage skills and to discuss Europe’s recovery and its future. It was organised by Europa Nostra – the European Voice of Civil Society Committed to Cultural Heritage – during the Slovenian Presidency of the Council of the EU, with the support of the European Union and the patronage of the European Parliament, through the Creative Europe and Horizon 2020 programmes, as well as in collaboration with other European and Italian partners. The event was run in a hybrid format, with a limited number of stakeholders on-site and a wider audience connected virtually. The main outcome is represented by the Venice Call to Action: “For a New European Renaissance”, a document that puts forward 12 concrete and actionable proposals with the aim of including the potential of cultural heritage in the key priorities of the European Union and the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.
