Abstract
Rural areas in the Danube Region face economic, societal, cultural and environmental challenges. They
are rich in diverse cultural heritage which is often neglected and not taken into consideration as a potential
resource for development. Wood resources form an integral part of tangible and intangible cultural
heritage. As an environmentally friendly material, wood can play an important role in sustainable development.
Valorization of wood traditions according to present needs may help to mitigate and overcome
problems of rural areas. The general objective of the project is the sustainable rural development through
valorization of wood cultural heritage. Wood cultural heritage may be seen as an asset to enhance economic
development in rural areas. Transfer of knowledge on wood cultural heritage and its importance
will improve the social relations in local communities and raise awareness on environmental issues.
