Strategic vision and regional action for a competitive Danube Crafts Route - R1

The Joint Danube Strategy for valorizing traditional crafts and thematic tourism will be developed in order to provide a strategic vision and guidance for the actors involved in the Traditional Craft Route.

The implementation of the strategy will be done by developing & piloting 12 regional action plans (RAPs) that define specific actions to promote the quality and visibility of the transnational cultural route.

The joint strategy and regional action plans follow certain effectiveness / efficiency criteria, such as quality assurance, standards implementation, and innovative approaches, seeking long-term viability for the Traditional Crafts Route (TCR), promoting the recognition and innovative use of valuable traditional crafts heritage, and the development of ecotourism in rural areas of the Danube Region.
