Project goals

Creating a new and sustainable environment for protection, maintenance and useful use of general and specific cultural activities. Our project is crucial for the future of smart territorial development of the cross-border region. It will establish cooperation for joint activities between the target group in the field of cultural heritage and the revival of folk traditions. The implementation of the project will contribute to the improvement of the access to historical and natural landmarks, as well as to the improvement of the border area with emphasis on the importance of the protection of the cultural heritage.

                                           Project activities:

We want to present the folk, historical and cultural traditions and ethnic diversity in order to provoke the young generation to continue preserving folk art. We will help folklore groups by purchasing new folk costumes and musical instruments. This is an expression of a wealth of spiritual, artistic and creative talents and a constant pursuit of beauty and grace. The culmination is the concerts of folk ensembles. Seminars on “Folklore – past and present”. Visits of the target group for demonstration tours. The aim is to show the real situation of the tourist infrastructure and the opportunities for development in these two regions.
