Wooden Boatbuilding Heritage And Entrepreneurship: A Constructive Dialogue Between Greece And Norway

An innovative and creative initiative aimed at enhancing cultural entrepreneurship and safeguarding the centuries-old craft of traditional wooden boatbuilding in Greece and Norway—two of Europe’s foremost maritime nations. Funded by the EEA Grants, this project underscores the significance of wooden boatbuilding as an integral component of cultural heritage, formally recognized on both countries' National Intangible Cultural Heritage Lists.

Three primary objectives underpin the project:
