这项创新的教育计划有两个总体目标：通过把当地的文化遗产与自然遗产结合到课程中，促进以价值观为基础的教育，通过教育、培训、直接的活动、增强意识为保护埃尔切的遗产做出贡献。1968年在普索尔（Pusol，西班牙埃尔切的乡村）的只有一名教师的乡村公立学校，该项目成功地将文化遗产与正式的教育相结合。儿童们在老师和外界合作者的指导下，在游戏的氛围里探索埃尔切丰富的文化遗产，和传承人接触，直接发挥保护的作用。孩子们在实地调查中收集数据，列举描述博物馆的收藏，互相传授并教给参观者关于遗产的知识，自学并探索这类遗产。该项目培训了近500名学童，并且学校博物馆的收藏目录包含61，000个条目及770件口头档案，保存了日常生活中的遗产，促进了当地文化遗产资源的保护计划。从1968年到上世纪八十年代中期，该项目一直限于普索尔的农村地带，该学校就坐落在这片地区内。而随着此项目的价值与成就的信息传播，项目的运作范围也相应扩大，先纳入了埃尔切的农村地区（1980年代中期），然后又扩大到埃尔切市（1990年代）。当地的农村社会、埃尔切的普通群众、文化教育的专家，都非常重视这个项目，及其开创性的民主、综合和共享的性质，此项目是展示自下至上的文化保护措施的可行性的典范。

This innovative education program has two overall goals, one is to promote value-based education by integrating local cultural and natural heritage with the curriculum, the other is to contribute to the preservation of Elche’s heritage through education, training, direct activities, and awareness-raising. In 1968, the project succeeded in combining cultural heritage with formal education in Pusol (the village of Elche, Spain), a rural public school with only one teacher. Under the guidance of teachers and outside collaborators, children explore the rich cultural heritage of Elche and contact with the heirs through games, this plays a direct role in protecting the heritage. Children collect data through surveys, and enumerate collections depicting museums. At the same time, children also impart to each other and teach visitors about the heritage. This helps teach themselves and explore such heritage. The project has trained nearly 500 schoolchildren. The school museum’s collection catalogue contains 61,000 entries which include 770 oral files, preserving the heritage of everyday life and promoting the plans for conservation of local cultural heritage resources. From 1968 to the middle of 1980s, the project was confined to the rural area of Pusol where the school was located. With the dissemination of information on the value and achievements of the project, the scope of operation of the project has expanded accordingly, incorporating the rural areas of Elche (mid-1980) and then to Elche (1990s). The local rural society, the general masses of Elche, and the cultural education experts attach great importance to this project whose pioneering democracy, integrated and shared nature make itself a model for demonstrating the bottom-up protection of cultural measures.
