To develop and foster the process of community-led participation in tourism development based on sustainable exploitation of indigenous natural and cultural resources, Municipality of Campobasso created a space that's dedicated to the meeting and listening of small focus groups of citizens who will be managed and interviewed by the facilitators of the technical assistance group. The space that is perfectly suited to these needs in the city of Campobasso, was recognised in Piazzetta Palombo: open space and passage, which is at the same time defined on the sides by the porches that make it perfect for meetings in safety but not dispersive. This place was chosen because it is located in the heart of the historic centre, and it is one of the urban spaces which represent a transit point for travellers and tourists who can there find the traditional crafts of the city.

For the next four Thursdays in Piazzetta Palombo the SPACE EXCOVER will be opened, which will serve as a place to organise the "focus groups" with residents (associations, restaurateurs, merchants, etc.) and to meet anyone who wants to participate to provide their contribution as a citizen, a place that encourages public participation in the process of developing a future model. The "SPACE" is an inclusive place to propose ideas, bring little-known stories, chat about the city and try to hypostasize strategies.

Tourists and visitors will be involved, so they will become key figures as they can participate in building local knowledge and experience. A first meeting has already been held on August 6, and other four will be held every next Thursday.

The citizens will be put at ease, in an informal and welcoming situation so as to make the interview more authentic and relaxed. The current social distance and personal protection regulations will be respected and the contact surfaces will be sanitised from time to time.
