Having held three editions in Spain and Argentina, this year SOPA Congress crosses again the Atlantic to land one more time in Spain, specifically in the town of Zalamea de la Serena (Badajoz province).


The main objective of SOPA Congress is to educate in the common, contacting, facilitating access and transmission to the heritage in rural areas, foster a true cultural democracy. Working in the collective feeling, with people who want to engage with the community, who wants to change the ways we relate to our culture. Emancipate knowledge through the expansion of the knowledge and co-creation of content and methodologies. In this way we will know the different ways of seeing, try and consider the rural heritage as a generator of wealth, enabling local actors to develop innovative and sustainable cultural and economic initiatives within their own territory.

SOPA Congress aims to be a forum for both agents of the cultural sector and other areas that coordinate their actions with heritage (teachers, municipal employees and non-governmental institutions, citizens in general), a place of conversation, theoretical and methodological experimentation, where propose and explore joint action mechanisms. This will facilitate awareness about cultural heritage linked to rural areas and their different forms of management, emphasizing those that include citizen participation in their development. At the same time, developed projects around the world will be exhibited, leading to the knowledge of new ways of working in rural areas that could fit in any country.












Here we show the three formats you have to present proposals to SOPA16. In addition, we also inform the several sessions of the congress to which you can submit.
