Pupils from ten schools in the provinces of Venice, Padua and Rovigo are the protagonists of the Veneto Region's educational pilot project, which aims to promote awareness of tourism and sustainability.
A combined effort
The idea cones from the Veneto Region Tourism Directorate and foresees the participation of the International Centre for Civilization of Aqua Onlus and the UNESCO World Network of Water Museums. The project is part of the European strategic project, supported by the Italia-Croatia Interreg program, in which Veneto participates together with another 6 Italian and 5 Croatian regional bodies.
High hopes for the younger generation
Veneto’s Commissioner for Tourism, announcing the launch of the initiative, said that the project aims at training young people by actively involving them and stimulating their creativity on the themes of slow, accessible and sustainable tourism.
