Territorio Mudéjar was this Tuesday invited to the opening table of the provincial technical conference “The Andalusian heritage as a cultural, touristic and economic value for the future of the province of Cordoba”, organised by the Las Fuentes Foundation with the sponsorship of the Provincial Council of Cordoba and the collaboration of the University of Cordoba.

At this meeting, the Medina Network was presented at a conference attended by the following participants:

• Felipe Vidales, Complutense University of Madrid, who spoke on “El Toledo islámico, conexiones con otros centros andalusíes” (Islamic Toledo, connections with other Andalusian centres).
• Victoria Trasobares, director of Territorio Mudéjar, who spoke about “Networking around Mudejar heritage”.
• Bárbara Ruiz Bejarano, from the Las Fuentes Foundation and TM researcher, who spoke about the Medina Network and Muslim-Friendly tourism.

The network of medinas is a plural and open initiative that seeks to culturally and socio-economically revitalise municipalities in the Iberian Peninsula that possess a legacy of Islamic origin, whether Andalusian or contemporary. The project also aims to promote tourism and sustainable cultural experiences.
