Education for the SDGs, and in particularly the SDG6 on Water is a crucial prerequisite for more forward-looking water management and a stimulating field for creative innovation of water museums. The digitization of natural and cultural water heritage is also a key process that should be promoted when thinking about sustainable futures in Europe. Promoting attractive education activities of museums to address climate change and environmental challenges. Within this context MIO-ECSDE will bring into the project its experience working in the Euro-Mediterranean region on water education, awareness raising, skills’ building and ESD, as well as leveraging networking and capitalization.

The key objectives of CreDiT are to:

  • Promote attractive education activities of museums to address climate change and environmental challenges.
  • Improve people’s access to and interpretation of water heritages inside and outside museums.
  • Prevent further losses of both natural and cultural water heritages in the long term.

CreDiT aims to reach its goal by:

  • Surveying about the digital competences and training gaps of the water museums.
  • Developing knowledge and competences of the partners related to digitalization of water cultural heritage (through planned Workshops).
  • Co-creation of digital campaigns and tools for the participating museums.
  • Educating the youth on digital routes, 3D models, 360-experience tools, and educational e-media (through Trainings).
  • Creation of a web-platform that facilitates the interaction among museums and the exploitation of the created digital tools.
