Directions of updating the cultural heritage of Roztochchia in the conditions of war

Abstract

The relevance of cultural and educational activities to ensure the promotion of the Ukrainian Roztochchia region has been analyzed. In connection with the processes of decentralization, a number of problems arise with the passporting of objects of cultural heritage, innovations in document circulation, etc. Active military actions on the part of Russia lead to large‒scale destruction or complete destruction of the artistic heritage of certain regions of Ukraine. In the current conditions, measures for security, fixation, preservation and promotion will be of great importance in the cultural and artistic space both for a separate region and for the state as a whole. The need to capitalize the resources of cultural strategies has become especially acute during the 2022-2023 war, a time when the issue of heritage preservation is a priority at all levels of state formation. The opening of cross‒border road connections between Ukraine and Poland created favorable conditions for the development of tourism. This allows increasing tourist flows, especially from European countries to Lviv, and also requires the development of tourist infrastructure on both sides of the border: hotels, cafes, eco-stops, agro‒villages, etc. Cross‒border tourism has covered only the roadside (along the main transport arteries) part of the Roztochchia region, but the majority of artistic attractions, namely the heights of Roztochchia, remain outside the international tourist flows. The lack of land border crossings, information sources about tourist routes, insufficient provision and low standard of logistics services, especially from the Ukrainian side, lead to the leveling of cultural heritage and its promotion. International projects, competitions and grants will be important factors supporting the development of artistic processes in the region. High civic consciousness and the activity of cultural institutions will lead to significant positive changes in the issues of preservation and promotion of regional features, their identity and uniqueness.
