The participative survey to the HEREIN network on garden policy launched in 2015, led to create the "HEREIN in garden" network whose objectives are:

1. Contributing to the building of a voluntary countries network;
2. Promoting the exchange of information and know-how;
3. Promoting international and national activities on gardens;
4. Raising awareness of different audiences.

The HEREIN in garden network aims to provide information at international level (on actors, legislation...) and at national level (on authorities responsible and other actors, legislation, documentation, awareness actions, protection measures, training...)

European Rendez-vous in Gardens

As part of the European Year of Heritage in 2018 and inspired by the previous 14 French editions of "Rendez-vous aux Jardins", a first joint European event on Gardens took place in 16 countries.

On the model of the European Heritage Days, the objective is to secure this event with the countries already participating and to extend these "Rendezvous in Gardens" to other European countries.

The number of participating countries has regularly increased: 21 countries are now participating simultaneously, on the same theme and with the same visual adapted in the national languages.

A summer in the garden ...

In July 2018, the “Centre for heritage professions” in Wallonia (Belgium) organized two weeks of activities and internships for very different audiences.

During the first week of July, the 2nd meeting of educators on heritage professions with the theme of urban and rural gardens was held: nine teachers met to exchange, practice and discover. The week was punctuated by visits and workshops of stone carving or rock cement factory. Round tables were also organized to encourage exchanges on the experiences and discoveries of the day from an educational perspective. Among the discoveries of the week, it is worth mentioning the visit of the willow village in Hosdent, the visit to the Tchafornis park in Engis and the lecture by Nathalie de Harlez de Deulin on the history of the gardens.

During the second week of July, a "Yesteryear Garden" workshop dedicated to children and designed by the educational teams of the Centre des métiers du patrimoine and Château de Jehay allowed children to discover vegetable dyeing with dye plants, the association of plants and many other things. The highlights of this internship were the art of canning and vegetable printing on textiles. Once the internship is over, both teams are already thinking about next year's theme!
