The matching of its resources - the land with food, the beautiful scenery with wine, the cuisine and culinary traditions with culture, history and museums - it can and must be the true strategy for the promotion of this region and, why not, an economic model to be exported for different sectors: economy, tourism, agri-food, training, culture and solidarity.
