MC candidate manifesto:

Culture, Museum, Education, Open Data, Creative Industries

I believe that my transdisciplinary skills will be very helpful at ENA Council, specially dwelling with digital heritage education and information systems. I am very keen on pursuing democratizing gamification projects for the European cultural sector as a way of engaging museum staff and visitors.

I will advocate, alongside with other portuguese peers, to promote hands on sessions in cultural institutions, schools and enroll in actions or projects with our local communities, teachers, students and heritage professionals.
