Atlantic Days
As of 2004 the Atlantic Days have become a yearly tradition.
As part of the AWAD project, the Atlantic Days were intended to inform the public of the progress of the project and its website/database. Since 2004 this event has been held annually, presenting new and interesting studies on themes of relevance for the history and heritage in the Atlantic region.
Thanks to the successful cooperation between the partners, these Atlantic Days offer a valuable opportunity for reflection on topics relating to the Atlantic. They also serve as a vehicle for gathering new information, discussing and exchanging opinions and ideas, giving feedback on the AWAD project and meeting those involved.
