YODA – Youth for Open Digital Acquisitions: About the Training in 3D Heritage and Best Practices YODA – Youth for Open Digital Acquisitions: About the Training in 3D Heritage and Best Practices ================================================================================================== YODA investigates how 3D heritage is currently taught, practiced, and coordinated across CIVIS universities and partner institutions. Digital heritage is expanding rapidly, yet training practices, vocabularies, and data standards remain fragmented across Europe. Rather than creating new courses, YODA maps existing teaching activities related to 3D acquisition, documentation, processing, and data governance at ULB, UNIL, and AMU. The project compares academic programmes with the needs of institutional partners such as the Direction du Patrimoine numérique (Belgium) and CIPA Heritage Documentation (ICOMOS–ISPRS). Through collaborative workshops, cross-analysis, and a final international event, YODA will produce a synthetic report and an open-access toolkit to help universities and public institutions align training approaches, strengthen capacity, and build a shared European culture of digital heritage education.

Around 20–30 participants will engage through workshops, interviews, co-analysis sessions, and dissemination events. ### Social Impact YODA contributes to building a shared European framework for digital heritage education. The project supports sustainable data governance, strengthens interdisciplinary networks, enhances civic engagement, and fosters a democratic approach to cultural heritage through open, interoperable methodologies. Core Methodology ------------------ Comparative mapping, participatory workshops, co-analysis, and co-creation of an open-access toolkit.
