The European Cloud for Heritage OpEn Science (ECHOES) project, led by CNRS won the Horizon Europe 2023 call “A European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage” (HORIZON-CL2-2023-HERITAGE-ECCCH-01-01). For the ECHOES project, CNRS, together with CNR (Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, Italy) and FSP (Fondation des Sciences du Patrimoine), has formed a consortium of 51 European partners from heritage, humanities and social sciences research and finally IT backgrounds. Sixteen of the partners lead networks in different sectors and all the members represent over a thousand cultural heritage organisations in Europe. The influence of these key partners means ECHOES can cover all the European Union countries and also the United Kingdom. The project aims to create the collaborative cloud, a European reference platform for both tangible and intangible cultural heritage professionals.

PHOTOCONSORTIUM supports the initiative as part of the Stakeholders.
