The project, winner of the Borghi Call by the Ministry of Culture funded through the PNRR, takes advantage of the ciclovia VENTO (currently under construction) to jointly work on slow tourism, social inclusion, historic center recovery, and cultural revitalization of the village. It aims to develop and test a model of urban regeneration that aspires to be a replicable strategy in small and medium-sized coastal towns involved or close to the ciclovia VENTO.
