Setting-up the Atlantic network for the valorization of the great nautical expeditions is the overall project objective. This is totally innovative to date. This objective represents the transnational challenge jointly tackled by the partnership. Added-value brought by the figure of the Council of Europe Cultural Route will be applied to the valorization of the Great Atlantic Expeditions legacy.

Transnational strategies and action plans will drive 6 project activities embedded in 3 Workpackages. Activities address the set-up of a scientific committee, of a Atlantic Association governance body, of a new Council of Europe Cultural Route, of the implementation of 4 Pilot actions and of enhancing visibility and innovation to the new Cultural Route. All of this could only be achievable on the basis of transnational cooperation of the project partnership and other territorial partners not involved in the project. The durability of the project outputs is ensured.
