From October 17-20, 2024, the SDA team actively participated in the “Environmental Sustainability in Cultural Events” workshop in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. Organized by ACAJ in the framework of the Kultinclusion project co-financed by EC, the event focused on key topics like environmental sustainability, cultural inclusion, and the role of European regulations in shaping eco-friendly, inclusive events.

Day 1 covered sustainability in cultural events, highlighting water usage, recycling, and building regulations. Expert speaker Antonio Figueroa Abrio led the discussion on environmental challenges, while presentations by architects Nicolás Maldonado Fernández and Rocío González de Lara Gámiz explored sustainability in cultural buildings.

Day 2 emphasized inclusion, particularly for people with disabilities, with contributions from speakers like Lola Vallespi and Concepción Pérez Puyana. The discussion centered on accessibility and government responsibilities for creating inclusive cultural spaces.

Day 3 concluded with networking and an exchange of best practices among local associations. This event fostered cross-border collaboration and innovation in creating sustainable and inclusive cultural events.

The Sofia Development team gained valuable insights into best practices for environmentally sustainable and inclusive event management, strengthening their capacity to implement these strategies in future projects.

The KULTInclusion project is funded by the Erasmus+ program, priority area KA220-ADU - Cooperation partnerships in adult education.
