Europeana Pro

Europeana imagines a cultural heritage sector powered by digital and a Europe powered by culture, giving it a resilient, growing economy, increased employment, improved well-being and a sense of European identity. Europeana brings together cultural heritage professionals from all domains and from all of Europe through the Europeana Network Association, the Europeana Aggregators’ Forum, diverse projects and partnerships and a programme of physical and digital events. Notably, Europeana is an online free library that gives all its users access to the cultural European heritage.

Europeana is at the heart of the common European data space for cultural heritage, a flagship initiative of the European Union to support the digital transformation of the cultural heritage sector. It can be a big help for culture professionals mainly because it gives free access to cultural European heritage online. Europeana is at the heart of the European Commission’s common European data space for cultural heritage, funded under the Digital Europe programme as part of Europe’s Digital Decade. The Digital Europe Programme (DIGITAL) is an EU funding programme focused on bringing digital technology to businesses, citizens and public administrations. This is important in the contects of the REACT project that tries to find and list initiatives that are somehow important for the digital transformation of the cultural establishments, as well as the improvement of their accessibility.

Europeana is a result of the collaboration of three interlinked expert organisations who share the vision of a cultural heritage sector transformed by digital, and a Europe transformed by culture: Europeana Network Association, Europeana Foundation and Aggregator’s Forum. Together, we call this ecosystem the Europeana Initiative.
