The large project network comprises exclusively member institutions of the " Comenius Association", such as:
Universidad Ramón Llull, Barcelona; Centro Superior de Estudios Universitarios La Salle, Madrid; Haute Ecole Léonard da Vinci, Brussels; West University of Timisoara, Roumania; Escola Superior de Educacao de Santarem, Portugal; Katholieke Hogeschool Mechelen, Belgium; Kingston University - School of Education, London; University of Stavanger, Norway.

The IP did not receive fundings for the second year
European Heritage 2004-2007
A door to intercultural discovery and a tool to appreciate traditional crafts. The Belgian institution, Isell Ste Croix was project leader and various member institutions of the Comenius Association participated, including UC South.
Looking at the European heritage of monuments and buildings as the product of craftsmen's expertise was not only a way of assessing the importance of their skills, it was also a way of acknowledging the role of vocational schools and colleges training for these crafts. This was the primary objective of the programme set up for trainees teaching the 10 to 15 of age group.
The scheduled activities included the observation of urban, rural and natural landscapes, the touring of sites and buildings of varying components and styles, in other words, a historical readjustment. Meetings with craftsmen lead to the making of a work under their supervision, followed by an intercultural exchange where students worked in multinational groups. The intercultural dimension of the European heritage and this new approach to manual crafts were to be integrated in pedagogical web tools at each participating institution.
In March 2007 UC South hosted the course "European Heritage – Traditional Crafts".
