InTourAct project
Objectives:
• Ensuring an integrated approach in tourism development planning in terms of synergies with the policies related to tourism and from a geographic point of view
• promoting not only the central tourist destinations but also the surrounding areas, towards the extension of the tourist season, a reduction of tourism concentration, environmental and economic sustainability and supply enhancement
• promoting the bottom up analysis, planning and evaluation of tourist development to optimize the resources and socio-economic knowledge and to increase the attractiveness and competitiveness of innovative models and supplies;
• Building and setting up a transnational sustainable and integrated tourism development forum for urban and periurban/rural areas.
The project therefore aims at drafting integrated and sustainable tourism action plans for peri-urban areas through a participatory approach thus contributing towards the development of functional regions in a key economic sector.
