TEMPUS will enhance the heritage of urban ports by adopting a common approach and at the same time by strengthening the peculiarities of different locations between the two coasts of the Adriatic Sea. To this extent, TEMPUS will build a community of practice devoted to heritage-driven sustainable development and to the creation of joint visibility and valorization frameworks, and will display site-to-site on-field pop-up exhibitions allowing visitors to gain knowledge and awareness about local port heritage, and about the close relations connecting the Adriatic port cities. Finally, an ad-hoc ICT environment will be developed, aimed at supporting the TEMPUS community, at offering structured and evocative virtual touristic itineraries meeting also the needs of disadvantaged visitors, and at gathering scientific and people-sourced port CH contents.
