The 2024 EC²U Forum Municipalities Session: Sustainable Tourism

The home cities of the EC²U partners are offering an attractive and sustainable touristic experience. As part of the 2024 EC²U Forum, the representatives of the eight EC²U municipalities will explore in this engaging session how the digitization of Cultural Heritage can be a strategic action to encourage sustainable tourism and promote inclusion and integration.

Session Highlights

• Presentation of how the digitization of Cultural Heritage can contribute to sustainable and inclusive tourism, including specific target groups such as young people. By Prof. Marco Morandotti, University of Pavia, Department of Civil Engineering and Architecture
• City Contributions and Presentations: Listen in as representatives from the EC²U partner cities (including representatives from Coimbra, Portugal; Iaşi, Romania; Jena, Germany; Linz, Austria; Pavia, Italy; Poitiers, France; Salamanca, Spain; and Turku, Finland) share the unique and distinctive approaches and activities that foster the sustainable touristic experience of their city’s landmarks.
• Moderated, Interactive Discussion and Quiz: This session will be professionally chaired by an EC²U city representative to provide a structured yet engaging discussion that will actively involve everyone attending the session. Pay attention, as you will have the chance to win small gifts from the EC²U cities in a quiz!

Interactive and Engaging

This highly interactive session encourages input and questions from the audience. Attendees will be able to engage directly with city leaders and learn more about effective local governance practices as well as how to apply these practices within their own communities.

Whether you are a student, a researcher, a city official, or just interested in local governance, this session promises to offer valuable insights as well as some fun.

See YOU at the Municipalities Session!
