About section
About
Project FORTIC addresses common challenges across Adriatic cross-border territories, focusing on enhancing sustainable tourism through digital solutions and innovative social models. Key challenges include the lack of digital tools for developing joint sustainable tourism products, seasonal dependency of tourism activities, and the need for green and digital technologies in cultural heritage preservation. The project aims to strengthen the role of cultural heritage, particularly fortifications, in promoting sustainable tourism. This involves recognising and implementing business models that integrate innovative digital solutions and inclusive social models tailored to the needs of vulnerable groups and heritage communities. By achieving these objectives, FORTIC seeks to establish strategic and sustainable tourism management practices across the Adriatic region, emphasising natural heritage conservation and reducing territorial vulnerability. FORTIC will deliver pilot actions to test digital and physical solutions that improve access to cultural heritage for diverse user groups. Projects aims to enhance cooperation and position the Adriatic cross-border area as technologically advanced and sustainable, promoting its attractiveness for tourism while preserving cultural and natural heritage.
