Project idea:
The PEACE ROUTE project is focused on the priority objective of the programme
2 RSO 4.6:
Strengthening the role of culture and sustainable tourism in economic development,
social inclusion and social innovation.
The project aims to create attractive, mobile artistic-informational "bubbles"
(domes) in the section of the Kaunas - Bialostok road, in which, according to today's
realities, innovative cultural tourism highlights related to the aspect of
civic awareness would be conveyed to audiences of target groups using popular
means and methods. In these domes, educational activities, expositions and the
historical - museum material of the struggle resistance collected by the project
partners would be presented in an interactive form.
Attractive gaming, digital and artistic means will promote audience attraction,
project participants' identification with the state and trust in it, form the
concept of sustainability, citizenship and community.
The main target groups of the project: youth, families, Ukrainian war refugees.
The goal of the project: to prepare and implement an innovative, mobile form of
sustainable cultural tourism that would attract a wide audience of participants
and participants from particularly vulnerable social groups, and would contribute
to the economic development of the project regions.
Tasks of the Peace Route project:
• plan and prepare environments for the placement of mobile Peace Route exhibitions;
• prepare mobile infrastructural solutions for simple structures, necessary equipment and tools;
• to prepare and implement a sustainable business model, which includes operational aspects, the
human resources needed for the implementation of the project, and the flow management aspects of participants;
• create and use attractive cultural and artistic means in exhibitions (visual accents, installations,
photo-video-musical material, verbal information).

Project continuity:
we plan to periodically move the domes to other places in both Poland and
Lithuania, covering wider target audiences and operating according to the
principle "the content travels to the project participant".
At a later stage, we plan to extend the Peace Route further into Europe along
the route of the E67 road, inviting new partners and expanding the cultural
tourism, cooperation and social inclusion, promotion of public citizenship highlights that are relevant for this period.
