EVAH (European Values in Heritage) Project was an inter-regional program funded by the EU (2010-13) for the establishment of a network between the organizations involved in the restoration and revitalization of the historic cities in 4 countries of the southwestern Balkan. The 24-months EVAH Project addressed these needs and constraints in the historic cities, by conducting specialized workshops, supported by various media. It aimed to make a structural impact through improved regulatory frameworks adopted by governments and parliaments, and to get the general public involved in improving the situation of their cultural heritage. By getting all the relevant stakeholders involved in the discussion and providing recommendations on how to protect and save cultural heritage it has been created a better environment for handcrafts and historic cities.
