South Baltic Region consists of countries with a deep historical relationships (both cultural & commercial cooperation as well as conflicts & wars), which makes discussions about our past very diverse. It is therefore interesting to see the network of museums from Germany, Poland, Lithuania and Sweden intending to jointly work with innovative historical methodology (Time Travel) addressing the same socio-economical phenomenon -MIGRATION – from the international perspective. This phenomenon has been jointly selected as a result of meeting held within the Umbrella project in Gdansk in June 2018. The partnering museums from Kalmar, Klaipeda, Gdańsk, Gargzdai and Wismar supported by Klaipeda University decided to work further within the project CROSSROADS in HISTORY for better understanding of challenges of modern society in the region through the historical background . The goal of this project is to promote regional identity through multinational Time-Travel method used by participating museums. The project is planned from mid 2019 till mid 2021. Except from standard packages (management & communication), the technical work is organized in the two packages: WP3 (Capacity) intends to increase the capacity of the network and institutions through training on Time Travel methodology, participation in international workshop on this methodology, training on networking and international cooperation (partnership, budget, reporting, etc) as well as building capacity on international communication; WP4 (Regional Product) is planned to select conceptualisalisation of the Regional Product (MIGRATION), develop the product in each participating museum, verify the outcomes from regional/international perspective and promote the product. Except from the final product (manual for a role play about migration in South Baltic Region), the main results of the project will be strengthened capacity of all partners and cooperating institutions and regional network of museums created.
