SUMMARY
Project HEART OF EUROPE, HE-ART, stems from the mission of GEOSS, from the central point of the heart of Slovenia. The mission was formed back in 1981 by the lead builders of this heart: the initiator Jože Dernovšek and the author, Peter Svetik. They wished to form a point that would ensure the integration, friendship, compassion and mutual acceptance of all people, by recognizing and accepting the mental components of their national existence, regardless of their differences, ways of thinking, and affiliations. The international expansion of the project in 2012 was created by Anka Kolenc with the International Day of Friendship Crow’s Flight.
Partnership organizations from seven countries are involved in the project (in addition to Slovenia, involved are also: Italy, France, Albania, Bulgaria, Sweden, Spain, and Greece). The project is aims for international cooperation and the creation and establishment of a permanent network of Heart Points with features that stem from the noble mission of GEOSS. Each international cultural heart is going to be a creative centre in which cultural events that will promote heart values such as acceptance of diversity, understanding, humanity, friendship and solidarity, cardiac integration while preserving and promoting their identity , compassion and sustainable survival on Earth – at the private, national and international levels are going to be planned, shaped, implemented, and performed. With the Heart of Europe network, He-art is going to, in each of the partners’ countries, create an example of cultural tourism and establish a Heart Point that will work for the area, for the country, and for international cooperation and integration, which is especially significant in The Year of European Cultural Heritage. Among others, we are going to address the problems of youth, unemployment, globalization, immigration, European citizenship, Euroscepticism, stigmatization of emigrants, and other problems with which intertwine our lives.
