Description: In the cross-border area formed by AU, HR, IT and SLO, the project promotes a network of twin cities as a tool for an integrated enhancement strategy.
Their work is structured through an ongoing debate among stakeholders (PAs and civil society representatives, cross-border policy experts) developed around four themes: cultural tourism (heritage); eco-tourism (environment); culinary and agro-tourism (food and local products); and integrated cross-border tourism (cross-border strategies and policies).
