Institute PAJN was established in 1994 with the aim to preserve and protect natural and cultural heritage of Cerknica and its surroundings. In year 2013 a trade mark HIŠA IZROČILA (Heritage House) was registered and the crucial partnerships were set up and so a noble mission of preservation and protection of Inner-Carniola and wider Slovenian heritage took off. In February 2014 the project In the same boat – Young Guardians of Heritage got a donation of EEA grants. The project mission is to preserve intangible cultural heritage protected by UNESCO (2003, ratified by Slovenia in 2008) and transmit it to younger generations.Projekt zaposluje dve strokovni sodelavki, omogoča pa sodelovanje več prostovoljcev.
