In continuity with the research Valore Staffarda commissioned to Fondazione Santagata in 2020 with the aim to implement the Development Plan of the Staffarda Abbey and village , we’re collaborating with Fondazione Ordine Mauriziano to manage and implement the digital innovation actions of the Innovation Plan, including the interactive and site-specific game Ghost & Found.

CONTEXT

In 2020 Fondazione Santagata carried out the research Valore Staffarda (promoted and funded by Fondazione CRC and Fondazione CRS, together with Fondazione Ordine Mauriziano) aiming at drafting an integrated valorisation plan of the monumental and environmental complex of the Staffarda Abbey, defining the hypotheses of investment in culture, tourism and entrepreneurial development and their impacts on the territory.

Within this context, Fondazione Santagata supported Fondazione Ordine Mauriziano in the drafting of the General Report, the Innovation Plan, the Business Plan, the Specialised Report funded by Bando per la valorizzazione del distretto UNESCO piemontese – patrimonio materiale e immateriale, riserve della biosfera, geoparchi e città creative della Regione Piemonte.
