Pendulum movement: Heritage education projects between the formal and informal spheres. The Pintia Program of Educational Innovation and The Wine Festival of Viver

Abstract

Heritage education is a journey with diverse approaches in which one's own heritage, whether material or immaterial, can be considered the origin, become an end or become the middle of the educational process. In this context, the fields of formal and informal education are often presented as independent, at best complementary, but they rarely flow, connected to each other, in the same educational project. This paper traces its itinerary presenting two patrimonial education projects - Viver Wine Festival and the Pintia Program of Educational Innovation -, where projection and ongoing processes dismantle this traditional dialectic between these educational fields. The teaching of historical heritage, from the processes of identization and construction of senses of belonging, and the implementation of a participatory and horizontal design, full of creativity, are the main axes of a dialogue in which also identify the collaborative work or the Look at memory and territory.
