Summary/Abstract: Value collection can only become an authentic movement if it transcends the online medium, and not only collects values on a webpage, but also organizes offline movements. There have been several such movements since the beginnings: the Kriza János Ethnographic Society has organized a conference and an exhibition that offered the possibility to get to know the criteria according to which values can be selected. Additionally, they also visited several localities, encouraging the locals to establish their own, local value collections. Following this work and example, the Value Collection of the Székely Land was established in the summer of 2016. In this case, the goal was to collaboratively collect the values which make this region special. This is how values from the category of “health and lifestyle” have come to be included into the Transylvanian Values’ Collection: the complex rehabilitation system employed in the Dr. Benedek Géza Cardiovascular Rehabilitation Hospital from Covasna County.
