This project is the first step to create a platform for action and collaboration to reactivate the intangible cultural heritage of the informal settlements in Europe that can challenge the idea of formal city and the ways of living together that it proposes. The first three nodes of territorial connection, in Romania, Portugal and Spain are founded and animated by small and independent organisations with a very rich background working in community based processes, contemporary cultural practices and transdisciplinary approach. Attached to the territories where they operate, with their practice the organisations are used to pay attention and give relevance to the small, familiar and day to day events, which is essential for a project that works with intimate memories. Even though the organisations have different views, languages and at some point, slightly different approaches to the intangible heritage, the partnership is complementary and optimum to explore the focus of the project.
