Hello Mili,
your project idea caught our attention, especially the link between technology, preparedness and practical use at local level.

We are Development and Research Center RRC Ormož, a public regional development institution from eastern Slovenia, and we would be interested in joining the project as a Project Partner from Slovenia.

Our team has many years of experience in preparing, leading and implementing EU-funded and transnational cooperation projects. RRC Ormož has worked both as a Project Partner and as a Lead Partner, including in regional and LEADER/CLLD (LAS) projects, and we are currently leading the URBACT ReDAN network. Through this work, we have built a strong network of municipalities, development agencies, public authorities, universities and other organisations across Europe.

At the same time, we work very closely with municipalities and local stakeholders, especially in rural and small-town areas. This gives us a strong practical understanding of how new tools and approaches can actually be introduced and used at local level.

In your project, we could contribute to pilot implementation, cooperation with municipalities, stakeholder involvement, capacity building and transfer of results into local and regional practice.
We believe our combination of EU project experience, leadership experience, a well-established European network and strong links with local authorities could bring real value to the partnership.
We would be happy to hear more about the project and explore how RRC Ormož could contribute.
