Sustainable tourism for sustainable development

In cooperation with the NGO Marimangat, the Institute for Territorial Economic Development (InTER) has started the implementation of the project "Sustainable Tourism for Sustainable Development". The project has been financially supported by the Kosovo Foundation for Open Society (KFOS) for a period of six months, starting on July 1, 2019.

The aim of the project is to contribute to local sustainable development in the municipalities of Zubin Potok and Pec through greater awareness of citizens and key stakeholders at the local level about the concept of sustainable tourism in targeted municipalities.

The project activities are intended to promote and accelerate the establishment of a positive link between tourism development and environmental protection, i.e. to achieve harmony between economic and environmental interests. For this purpose, a study on the concept of sustainable tourism will be made, round tables will be organized with representatives of local authorities in the municipalities of Zubin Potok and Pec, and a media campaign will be conducted in the form of publishing newspaper articles and documentary filmmaking.
