Abstract(s)
Teaching in higher education is a constant challenge, as it requires not only permanent updating, but
also the search for and implementation of the most appropriate methodologies that enable the
transmission of scientific and technical knowledge to students and their training to apply abstract
knowledge to concrete situations in the future profession.
The project proposal we present in our paper, was developed as part of the Cultural Management unit’s
assessment. Its main objective was to challenge the students to apply the knowledge they had acquired
and to develop feasible proposals for the sustainability of the territory and profitability of all the available
resources.
Therefore, in this paper we present not only the learning path taken throughout the semester, but also
the results achieved. The cultural management project proposal for the Commercial Port of Cambres
that we intend to present succeeds in transforming this facility into a driving force for the development
of the entire surrounding area and, through the action proposal, it will also contribute to tourism
sustainability itself, creating synergies between the built cultural heritage and the natural heritage of the
municipality of Lamego, located in the Douro demarcated wine region, a world heritage site, since 2001,
in Portugal.
We also intend to demonstrate how the construction of the cultural management project contributed to
consolidating the students' knowledge of the content covered and to increasing their confidence in
preparing them for the labour market.
