    Hola dear Isabela!

    We find your project proposition quite interesting and aligned with the activities and objectives in the tourism field of our NGO Ucles Monastery.
    We think it could be a good match and synergies will arise, the Ucles Foundation is a non-profit private organization in Castilla la Mancha, Spain, that manages the Uclés Monastery, an extraordinary historical monument of XVI century located in a rural area of extraordinary value.
    The Monastery of Uclés is more than a historical monument visited by thousands of tourists, it is a living and unique space with an innovative approach in terms of cultural offer, including exhibitions, conferences, concerts or educational activities. Indeed, the Monastery has been awarded with the prize of the Observatory of Culture for the variety and quality of its activities.”

    Dear Isabella,

    I am writing to you on the behalf of Trebinje Development Agency (Bosnia and Herzegovina). We are a local public non-profit organization involved in various development activities. We have considerable experience in development and implementation of different projects including those with transnational partnerships. Some of the programmes we participated in are: ADRION, DANUBE, Interreg IPA Croatia – Bosnia and Herzegovina – Montenegro, IPA Cross-border cooperation BiH-Montenegro, and various projects and initiatives founded by different international organizations.

    TREDEA is interested in all kinds of development activities which can contribute to overall development of the region, particularly within the sectors City of Trebinje is strategically oriented to – tourism, agriculture and energy. Our staff have a practical experience of projects dealing with sectors of tourism, heritage protection, environment protection, education, entrepreneurship, etc.

    Trebinje experiences significant growth in the field of tourism through last ten years, and, similarly to some large tourist centers, faces the need to increase tourist offer as well as to expand the offer outside urban parts of the city. Increased tourist flow causes change of interests within local population towards contents placed in rural areas and beautiful nature of Herzegovina. Due to aforementioned, and having in mind numbers and value of cultural-historical-natural heritage of Trebinje, estimations go towards essential need for utilization of available resources for development of more diversified tourist offer, with the proper care for preservation of mentioned heritage of course.
    As tourism becomes more important for economic and general development of Trebinje, contents which are outside urban boundaries become crucial for decreasing the pressure to city area.

    We find your project idea really interesting and we would like to hear more details about it.

    If you find our organization as a suitable partner, please do not hesitate to contact us via e-mail: bojan.benderac@msptb.net or marko.capin@msptb.net

    I’m Deana Alibali, specialist at the directorate of Strategic planing and EU projects in Shkoder Municipality, North Albania.
    I’m writing to express our interest in the project topics you have proposed.

    Brief presentation :
    The Municipality of Shkoder, is located in Northern Albania, has an area of ​​873 m2 and a population of 213,493 inhabitants. Scutari is part of the region of the same name and is one of the most important cultural and historical centers of Albania, as well as one of the oldest cities in Albania, with a thousand-year history behind it.
