programmes, projects and networks. In the period 2007-13 the EU
Territorial Co-operation objective (formerly the INTERREG Community
Initiative) covers three types of programmes
- 52 cross-border co-operation programmes along internal EU borders
+ 10 cross-border cooperation programmes under the Instrument for
Pre-Accession
- 13 transnational co-operation programmes cover larger areas of cooperation such as the Baltic Sea, Alpine and Mediterranean regions
- The interregional co-operation programme (INTERREG IVC) and 3
networking programmes (Urbact II, Interact II and ESPON) cover all 27
Member States of the EU

New ideas for 2° call of
IPA Adriatic Programme
Adriatic Salt Pans: an important resource for environment, economy,
tourism and cultural heritage
Priority 2: Natural and cultural resources and risk prevention
Measure 2.2.: Natural and cultural heritage management and prevention of natural and technological risks;
or Measure 2.4.: Sustainable tourism
Framework: The Town of Cervia is known, besides as important seaside resort,
as ancient Salt Town. The “white gold” production, probably started in the
Etruscan period, became very active from the 10th Century and had a strategic
role in the social, urban and architectural development of the Town. A large
number of towns and cities all over Europe and along the Adriatic coasts had
similar historical and social experiences during the ages. Salt pans represent a
very important resource not only for the environment, but also for the cultural
and touristic development. They have to be considered a cultural and
environmental resource of excellence.

affecting the fruition of salt pans;
•
To promote the touristic offer of towns and salt pans;
•
To realize courses for “salt-workers”

Theme: innovative promotion and fruition of routes dedicated to cultural
tourism
Priority 2: Natural and cultural resources and risk prevention
Measure 2.4.: Sustainable tourism
OBJECTIVES:
- To adapt the services (culture, tourism and other public services to citizens) to the
needs of targets to favour greater autonomy in searching information.
- To provide innovative services based on a user-driven approach, involving users in the
implementation and improvement of services.
- To promote the strategic town planning as main factor in the urban planning, to
manage policies, methods and contents of services supply/demand for targets
- To enhance tourism in the processes of economic and cultural integration at
international level with the opportunity to spread the promotion of “local social
identities” in each urban context of partners involved in the project, through active
participation of the tourists and residents.
New ideas for 2° call of
IPA Adriatic Programme
Theme: innovative promotion and fruition of routes dedicated to cultural
tourism
POSSIBLE ACTIONS:
To realize an innovative internet service for the promotion and fruition of routes
dedicated to cultural tourism or other urban services, by using combined
technologies to serve two different levels of consultation information:
- Integrated Web platform with general contents (cultural, tourist, commercial,
institutional, environmental, ....) and some multimedia stations placed in strategic
points of the city.
- Pilot project for “smart guides” on palmtop. The "smart guides" through a specific
navigation system allowing users to easily locate points of interest within an
instrumented area. Thanks to the palmtop tourists receive an alert when they meet
points of particular interest and the palmtop provide all information relating to the
place. Tourists are not obliged to follow a predefined route but can move freely
within the space facilities like in a real open air museum. The path can be made
accessible also by Internet
