The project aimed to increase society&#8217;s sensitivity to cultural heritage and show its potential for sustainable development to a wide audience, including children, as well as to teach the local community to use specific tools and world practices through a comprehensive educational campaign. As a result, the project produced a powerful educational campaign targeted at the local community and the general public, including articles and promotional videos on the value and importance of heritage preservation, various products for children, educational activities for the local community, publishing a guide on protection and use of cultural heritage and a landscape album. In addition, a promotional campaign was conducted for the tourist destination, and a communication strategy was developed for further use of cultural heritage for tourism development. The intended long-term result is increasing the attractiveness of Tustan as tourist destination, enhancing the quantity and quality of tourist-oriented products, improving the economic performance of the local community, increasing the tourist flow.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We share the results of the project here:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Promo video (30 sec) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=IEppTXbAl3w\">\u201cTustan: The power of the cliffs\u201d<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Promo video <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=DyoJ0-fg3B0&amp;t=8s\">&#8220;Feel the power of the cliffs&#8221;<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Promo video <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=7XbgoeJcTPo&amp;t=23s\">\u201cUrych, a unique village with Boyko authenticity&#8221;<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Video <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=eLyC_Fc6hLs\">\u201cVasyl Rozhko &amp; Mykhailo Shchur.

However, there are numerous obstacles and barriers along the way, and Tustan&#8217;s future depends on addressing these issues. Experts in marketing, communications, regional development, heritage economics, tourism, psychology, and sociology studied them during June-October 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A comprehensive approach was used to conduct the study, which included the collection of secondary and primary information on the research topic, structuring, analysis, identification of patterns and prioritization of problems, generalization, and development of recommendations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The study included several stages:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> desk research with processing of existing sources of information relevant to the project, a total of more than 180 sources (statistics, manuals, scientific works, previous research materials, publications in periodicals, etc.);<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> in-depth interviews with government representatives, entrepreneurs, tour operators, community leaders.
