Speaking to a professional audience, Raič outlined the theoretical foundations of the concept, what greening cultural heritage means, an analysis of relevant public policy at the international, European and national levels, and a systematic overview of good practices and practical guidelines for implementation. The conference proved a valuable opportunity to exchange experience with experts working at the crossroads of culture, the environment and climate change and to help advance understanding of the role cultural heritage can play in the green transition.
