    exchanges and collaborations at the local and European levels

A constantly evolving tool

The map was originally created to address a lack of visibility for dry stone-related activities in the South Region (France), identified during the European LEADER project for the exchange of expertise, carried out in cooperation between GAL Ventoux and LAG on the island of Brač (Croatia), and coordinated by Volubilis.

Initially focused on organizations, the platform evolved with the rollout of the Erasmus+ project “The European Crossroads of Dry Stone Know-How.”

The integration of dry stone ambassadors, trained via the MOOC, marks a key milestone: that of opening up to citizen engagement and the wider dissemination of knowledge.
