CULTURALITY Project Strengthens Local Ties in Asturias

On 31 December, all Asturian partners of the CULTURALITY project gathered for a pivotal meeting with the Local Action Managers (GAL) from six regions of Asturias. Organised jointly by ESPTOR and the University of Oviedo (UNIOVI), the event served as a crucial step in fostering collaboration and strengthening regional networks.

The meeting provided a platform for attendees to introduce themselves, become acquainted with one another, and exchange perspectives and aspirations regarding the project. Ana María Fernández García, the project’s Principal Investigator (IP), delivered an introductory presentation outlining the specific objectives pursued through this initiative. Following this, the Work Packages (WPs) led by the attending partners were detailed before the floor was opened for discussion and dialogue.

The exchange of ideas and insights among stakeholders was highly constructive, with participants expressing optimism about the potential collaborations that could emerge from this gathering. The discussions underscored the shared commitment to promoting cultural heritage in rural areas through sustainable and creative tourism initiatives.

The CULTURALITY project continues to build strong foundations for cooperation, with this meeting marking an important milestone in fostering regional engagement and strategic partnerships in Asturias. The organisers and attendees alike anticipate that the synergies created during the session will lead to valuable joint efforts in the future.
