EPIC will be a cross-border participatory space dedicated to the exchange of ideas and to the understanding of 20th-century history. The permanent exhibition will include personal stories and memories from the inhabitants of the Goriška region, shedding light on the historical interpretations of this region. EPIC will promote dialogue on identity and shared heritage, with local residents actively participating in shaping its content. The platform will address historical and cultural challenges and encourage collaboration and critical dialogue.
Participatory exhibitions act as catalysts for social change, connecting generations and encouraging dialogue. They are dynamic spaces where shared memories are not just historical artifacts but living narratives that transcend time and create lasting bonds between generations. By asking questions and seeking answers, they strengthen the sense of belonging and encourage visitors to take an active role in co-creating a shared identity. In this way, they create bridges between the past, present, and future. They contribute to the formation of a more inclusive and connected community that strives for the sustainable development of border areas and a better future.
