About the Project
Training for Accessible Cultural Tourism (TACT) is an Erasmus+ funded initiative dedicated to making cultural heritage sites more inclusive and accessible for people with disabilities (PWDs).
Cultural heritage and tourism sites across Europe hold immense value, yet for many visitors with disabilities, accessing them remains a significant challenge. A key reason is the lack of trained staff who understand how to design and deliver inclusive experiences. TACT addresses this gap directly: by equipping professionals at Tourism Support Organisations (TSOs) with the knowledge, tools and skills to drive lasting accessibility improvements in their regions.
Обука за приступачан културни туризам (ТАЦТ) је иницијатива финансирана од стране програма Erasmus+, посвећена томе да локалитети културног наслеђа постану инклузивнији и приступачнији за особе са инвалидитетом.
Локалитети културног наслеђа и туризма широм Европе имају огроман значај, али за многе посетиоце са инвалидитетом приступ им остаје велики изазов. Кључни разлог је недостатак обученог особља које разуме како да осмисли и пружи инклузивна искуства. ТАЦТ директно адресира овај јаз: оспособљавањем професионалаца у организацијама за подршку туризму (TSO) знањем, алатима и вештинама за покретање трајних побољшања приступачности у њиховим регионима.
Обучение за достъпен културен туризъм (TACT) е инициатива, финансирана от Erasmus+, посветена на това обектите на културното наследство да станат по-приобщаващи и достъпни за хората с увреждания.
Обектите на културното наследство и туризма в Европа имат огромна стойност, но за много посетители с увреждания достъпът до тях остава значително предизвикателство. TACT адресира тази празнина директно: като оборудва професионалисти в организациите за подкрепа на туризма (TSO) със знания, инструменти и умения.
Usposabljanje za dostopni kulturni turizem (TACT) je pobuda, financirana iz programa Erasmus+, namenjena temu, da kraji kulturne dediščine postanejo bolj vključujoči in dostopni za osebe z invalidnostjo.
Kraji kulturne dediščine in turizma po Evropi imajo ogromno vrednost, vendar za mnoge obiskovalce z invalidnostjo dostop do njih ostaja velik izziv. TACT neposredno naslavlja to vrzel: z opremljanjem strokovnjakov v organizacijah za podporo turizmu (TSO) z znanjem, orodji in veščinami.
What We Do
Training of Trainers
We develop and deliver a comprehensive Training of Trainers (ToT) programme, building expertise in accessibility, inclusive service provision and infrastructure development among TSO staff across partner countries.
Flexible Professional Learning
We create structured, hands-on training opportunities for adult professionals working in cultural heritage and tourism, making high-quality learning accessible and practical.
Sustainable Resources & Knowledge Sharing
We build an online learning platform and a Mentorship Network that connect accessibility advocates, share best practices and support ongoing collaboration long after the project concludes.
What We Aim to Achieve
- Delivered at least 6 training modules with supporting materials for TSOs and heritage site staff
- Trained at least 9 trainers from 3 countries through the ToT programme
- Conducted 3 study visits to assess and learn from accessible practice in the field
- Established training programmes in 3 TSOs and trained at least 45 cultural heritage and tourism professionals
- Launched an online platform serving at least 54 users with accessible resources and guidelines
- Created a Mentorship Network connecting at least 54 trained professionals with cultural heritage organisations
Beyond these tangible results, TACT aims to foster a shift in awareness, building stronger regional cooperation, increasing understanding of accessibility challenges and embedding a culture of inclusion across the sector.
