  • Call for Participation
    CALL FOR PARTICIPATION TENTATIVE TITLE “Florence in the World” International Festival World’s Cultural Expressions INTRODUCTION Born from the almost thirty years of activity of the Romualdo Del Bianco Foundation in Florence, the Life Beyond Tourism Travel to Dialogue Movement aims at promoting a human- centred approach to heritage enhancement and travel experience based on mutual understanding, solidarity and intercultural dialogue. The Festival calls the Institutional Members of the Life Beyond Tourism Movement (such as universities, libraries, cultural institutions) to commit in a “cultural story-telling” of their area that provides (in time of pandemic) an interpretation, presentation and enhancement of the local typical “cultural expressions” (according to the Unesco Glossary “those expressions that result from the creativity of individuals, groups and societies, and that have cultural content”), in order to recover their status of actors of the local development in respect of the place identity. Local stakeholders - with particular reference to the younger generations - will gain a new sense of belonging and visibility and will have the chance to contribute to a cohesive territorial development and - in the light of the post-pandemic recovery of the social, cultural and economic activities - to recreate an inclusive visitors’ attractiveness. Therefore, the festival is aimed at: ● engender a sense of cultural belonging and awareness in young participants, ● engage the local communities in the production of the local cultural storytelling, ● foster cohesive territorial visibility at international level and boost the image of your region as cozy and attractive for a new model of tourism, ● provide visitors with the right tools to interpret and understand your cultural identity, ● contribute to the income-generating capacity of the local cultural expressions and to the local development sustainable and resilient.

  • The Spirit of Place Between the Intangible and the Tangible
    THE SPIRIT OF PLACE BETWEEN THE INTANGIBLE AND THE TANGIBLE PAOLO DEL BIANCO Fondazione Romualdo Del Bianco Via del Giglio, 10 50123 Florence Italy [email protected] Abstract. “Life Beyond Tourism” is a project for a new style of tourism. Currently being tested in Florence, it can be experienced, measured, criticized and improved on. It's a flower whose petals are the “encounters”, “communication”, “knowledge”, “conservation” and “economy” (Figure 1). It's a new vision of tourism, not consumer-driven and not standardized but strategically designed: - to safeguard “spirit of place”; - to communicate “spirit of place”; - to encourage visitors of all cultural levels to truly familiarize with their destination; - to promote acquaintance and friendship among tourists from different countries; - to foster a sense of respect in a non-standardized context. In “Life Beyond Tourism”: - people working in the tourist business give their work added value by not only providing a service but also by being aware that they are working to promote peace; - tourists become potential heralds of peace; - sites reaffirm their identity as “laboratories” for familiarization with, and for the enhancement and communication of “spirit of place”. PAOLO DEL BIANCO 2 Figure 1. The flower of “Life Beyond Tourism The soul of a place The soul - the “spirit” - of a place is subject to its own kind of evolution as time goes by, but in recent decades the exceedingly rapid development of travel has impressed such speed on this otherwise natural process that the changes taking place cannot easily be assimilated by local culture; thus that culture is increasingly subject to an internal malaise which sometimes turns into outright rejection of change.
