Motivation
In my professional experience in the fields of culture, education, and research, I have come to recognise that applied activities are the most fulfilling. This realisation became particularly evident when I observed how ideas and efforts can be applied to a wide range of people. It became apparent that even minor yet significant actions can exert a substantial influence. Create Lithuania programme presented a valuable opportunity to apply my expertise in a collaborative environment with specialists from diverse backgrounds. It also offered the chance to expand my skill set in areas I had not previously explored. I firmly believe that cultural heritage is not only a reflection of the past, but also a living resource with the potential to create value for today’s society. My aim is to facilitate universal access to this heritage, ensuring its comprehension and relevance for all stakeholders. I am convinced that we can identify innovative solutions to ensure the conservation and regeneration of heritage, thereby contributing to a sustainable future for cultural heritage.
