The Interreg Europe Star Cities project organised a virtual interregional learning session from October 20 to 22. Adapting its work programme to the sanitary situation, the event was originally intended to take place in Hamburg, Germany.

The event coordinated by the Hamburg Metropolregion showcased 16 good practices, separated on four sub-themes. Two guest regions from NECSTouR - Veneto and the Barcelona Province (DIBA) - were selected following a survey we launched a few months ago. Respond to the new survey to share your riverside good practices on Environment & Sustainable strategies.

You can relive each session on YouTube including presentations of good practices from stakeholders from two other NECSTouR regions (Ile-de-France and Lazio Region) already engaged in the consortium. Discover, among others, the Tibertour, a 7 day trip to Rome along the Tiber river ; the Elbe Cycle Bus, a Private transfer service on the Elbe river ; the Herzapfelhof, a sustainable fruit farm in hamburg ; the Explore Paris booking platform ; the Port Museum of Hamburg…
