What are the aims of the project?

The intent is to build a strategy of economic and employment development linked to quality tourism and to underline the role that a proper appreciation of cultural heritage can play in the economic regional development.
The project aims to increase adult competencies related to job profiles especially in the social, touristic and artistic sector.
