European Heritage Association, based in Zagreb is non-governmental, non-profit organisation, member of Europa Nostra, dedicated to promoting every aspect of professional excellence in heritage professions and doing it "by power of example". The Association is tiny and will grow only through its own programme and those who assist it. "The Best in Heritage" is our first and foremost activity, but we already established an outpost of our programme. The Best in Heritage Excellence Club, at EXPONATEC Fair, Koelnmesse. By definition we have confined ourselves to activities not covered by the professional associations and institutions. We are flexible, versatile and ambitious.

To count all our innumerable colleagues who honestly do their hard work would be impossible. We hope that by this simple formula we use annually in Dubrovnik any professional perseverance and hard, innovative work will get more visibility and better estimation in the professional and wider community. We must work for our public visibility and our place in society's value system. The ways are many and to catch the public attention by the awarded excellence is one of them, - working quite well for our cause.
