Knowledge of cultural heritage amongst young people

The Institute of Cultural Heritage of Spain (Instituto de Patrimonio Cultural de España), has a national preventive conservation Plan that includes cultural tourism as an element of social cohesion and integrational cultural communication. Following the results of the Youth Report in Spain (2016) (Informe Juventud en España 2016) the leisure activity preferred by the youth is to travel, since 95% say they prefer it to other activities, and the favorite tourist destination is France. Similarly, the relationship between youth and cultural heritage constitutes a sector with many opportunities. The Spanish Government has been taking advantage of them since the '80s when the Schools Workshops (Escuelas Taller) project was established, teaching young people, between 16 and 25 years old, the great value of the Spanish heritage.
