iHERITAGE: Petra Immersive Brochure Overview
This document provides an overview of the immersive brochure created for Petra as part of the iHERITAGE project. Developed by the Jordan Society for Scientific Research, Entrepreneurship, and Creativity (JSSREC), the brochure utilizes augmented reality (AR) technology to offer an interactive exploration of Petra's cultural heritage. It includes detailed information about the project, its authors, graphic design, and development process, as well as insights into Petra's history, geology, and water management systems. Additionally, the brochure features a selection of monuments and landmarks within Petra, allowing readers to engage with the site's rich history and architectural wonders.
iHERITAGE Egypt: Augmented Brochure
The iHERITAGE project aimed to blend technology with cultural heritage through an Augmented Brochure. Selected after a call for proposals, 5dVR, an Egyptian company, contributed their expertise in augmented reality. Together with project partner, the Confederation of Egyptian European Business Associations, they refined concepts, created content, and developed prototypes. Copies of the brochure were strategically distributed, where visitors interacted with it firsthand. This approach maximized engagement and awareness about Egypt's cultural heritage.
iHERITAGE Italian Augmented Brochure
The iHERITAGE project team in Italy developed an Augmented Reality (AR) brochure to showcase project activities nationally. Extensive research was conducted to identify optimal graphic and technological solutions, resulting in a 3D model of the Cloister of the Church of San Giovanni degli Eremiti in Palermo. The brochure, available for online viewing and download, features integrated AR elements.
MedTOWN Demonstrative Actions on co-production initiatives in collaboration with SSE entities
In total, 6 Demonstrative Actions have been designed and implemented to target poverty and social exclusion, addressing diverse areas such as social and economic inclusion through SSE initiatives and digital innovation, women empowerment, waste management, and use of public spaces in collaboration with local public authorities and SSE actors. It is estimated that more than 25,000 individuals at social and economic exclusion directly benefited from the project, accessing better social services in their communities through the implementation of the MedTOWN Demonstrative in the 6 partner countries (Palestine, Jordan, Tunisia, Spain, Portugal, Greece).In total, 6 Demonstrative Actions have been designed and implemented to target poverty and social exclusion, addressing diverse areas such as social and economic inclusion through SSE initiatives and digital innovation, women empowerment, waste management, and use of public spaces in collaboration with local public authorities and SSE actors.

Clustering smart tools
By building on their common identity and by integrating into their productive schemes the principles of the circular economy, Mediterranean cities can create resilient urban environments and communities, establishing a supportive framework for CCI SMEs clustering.
This document contains the description of clustering smart tools as were proposed in the framework of the INNOMED-UP Project, together with Activities and Outputs they fall within. Tools concern designing a smart bicycle and building a prototype, developing a Central Information System, designing a smart garbage bin and building a prototype, developing an open source repository for circular designs and eco design toolkits, reproducing clustering smart tools in each case study and testing.
ICT solution for Slow Tourism Products (Pearls)
The new slow tourism products created were enhanced with innovative and creative solutions based on ICT technologies.
MEDWAYCAP Memorandum of Understanding
An alliance for a long-term capitalisation strategy at Mediterranean level to improve non-conventional water supply, management and reuse, formalised through a Memorandum of Understanding signed by the project partners and associated partners, as part of a broader capitalisation strategy. The parties to the Memorandum agreed to develop and implement an advocacy strategy and to set measurable milestones to assess the relevance of their joint initiative to the main outcomes sought.
RESTART MED - To the South West, video
A video created through a fund provided by RESTART MED to a sustainable tourism provider in Sicily to promote the area and attract responsible tourists.
RESTART MED - Official video of the MED Sustainable Tourism platform
The MED Sustainable Tourism is an initiative to promote Sustainable tourism in all Mediterranean countries.
Developed as a spin-off of CROSSDEV, MEDUSA, MED GAIMS and MED PEARLS projects, the MED Sustainable Tourism platform gathers guidelines and information about various kinds of sustainable tourism, such as Cultural Tourism, Adventure Tourism, Gamification in Tourism, and Slow Tourism. While being very peculiar in their own traits, they all share the same values, from the caring of environment to the wellbeing of local communities.

Water Reuse: Terms and definitions
Appropriate water reuse should be based on the state-of-the-art technology, standards, legislation, and sound knowledge, but also in the use of correct terminology between all users and stakeholders. Several different terms are used to describe forms of water and wastewater and their sub-sequent treatment and reuse, that are used interchangeably to define water reuse globally. This has created confusion among different stakeholders and between different countries. To facilitate communication among different disciplines associated with wastewater, water reclamation and reuse practices, it is important to establish a broad understanding of the terminology used in the field.
In this sense, the aim of this document is to provide an overview of commonly used terms and definitions relating to water reuse, contributing to ensuring the proper use of associated terms.

Geomatics Techniques for Historical Buildings Documentation and Restoration in Northern Jordan
Historical conservation and restoration is an important issue for heritage structures, this
research aims to develop heritage building information model (HBIM) for (Klaib
Basha Saraya) in northern Jordan. In Jordanian Heritage Management, such models
are still regarded a long way from becoming a well-established and widely used
technique. Using terrestrial laser scanning technologies, the project will bridge the gap
between historical documentation and historical building information modeling. HBIM
was created with parametric pieces to reflect the study area's structural, functional,
architectural, and historical aspects.
