Sažetak
“Weimar-Yasnaya Polyana-Stratford. National Cultural Heritage as a Factor of Sustainable Regional Development”- the new partnership project of three cultural sites associated with the three names known to everybody as, probably, symbols of their nations: Goethe, Leo Tolstoy and William Shakespeare. This two-year project has a budget
of 250 thousand euros, of which 200 thousand euros come from the European Commission (TACIS program). The project aims to develop a model of sustainable regional development based on the national Russian heritage at Yasnaya Polyana, former home of Leo Tolstoy. With its concrete outputs and its long-term results, this model shall serve as an example for other regions and organisations in Russia as well. The project therefore will transfer the experience of the national cultural heritage places in Weimar (Germany) and Stratford-upon- Avon (Great Britain) to Russia, especially in the
Þ elds of marketing, education and tourism. Central activity of the project is to establish a Training Centre “Cultural Heritage and Sustainability” in Yasnaya Polyana and to hold seminars
for Russian teachers, experts in tourism, cultural and regional managers and staff of the administration there. Regional workshops, international conferences and the exchange of experts will provide
this knowledge to other Russian regions and institutions. Joint tourist marketing activities will ensure a long-term partnership Stratford-Weimar- Yasnaya Polyana. The International Writers Meetings at Yasnaya Polyana have been annually held at the Tolstoy museum-estate for 10 years. Each conference is based on the most urgent problems and challenges Leo Tolstoy referred to, with a strong link to the problems and challenges of today. Best Russian and foreign writers are invited to these forums to discuss these matters. Each year, the Meetings are held in early September, one day always being Leo Tolstoy’s birthday. For the last three years,
there also exists the Literary Award “Yasnaya Polyana” that is given at the Writers Meetings to Russian writers and marks the most outstanding works in contemporary Russian literature.
