Mediterranean Ancient THEatres NEtwork
Start date: May 1, 2013,

ATHENE project aims to contribute to intercultural dialogue and cultural cooperation, through the revitalization and valorisation of Mediterranean Ancient Theatres (Greek and Roman legacy). Actions to be developed in order to achieve this goal directly address the 3 specific objectives of the Culture Program:• CULTURAL MOBILITY OF CULTURAL/ARTISTIC PRODUCTS: Definition and implementation of a joint international ATHENE Festival in different disciplines. It aims to recover and valorise the ancient Greek and Roman culture and legacy in the construction of the identity and values of the contemporary European citizenship, and to promote intercultural dialogue making visible the shared roots, values and culture throughout the Mediterranean basin, from East to West.• MOBILITY OF THE CULTURE PROFESSIONALS: Encouraging mobility through stays and good practices exchange workshops of culture managers of Ancient Theatres, aiming at improving their skills on culture management and on heritage and tourist valorisation of Ancient Theatres.• INTERCULTURAL DIALOGUE: Identification, characterization, selection and dissemination of artistic and cultural performances that promote intercultural dialogue among Mediterranean peoples, through the creation of a database and programming of joint festivals, and the setup of the foundations for the creation of a Mediterranean Ancient Theatres Network.To that end, the project will be implemented by a partnership composed by 4 co-organisers, coming from 3 different countries, representing both the Eastern (Croatia) and Western side (Spain and Italy) of the Mediterranean basin. Co-organisers represent both direct managers of Ancient Theatres on such locations, as a partner specialized on the management of EU projects, which will ensure its smooth implementation.
