It is especially important to highlight the final results of the project through which the hinterland in parts of Italy and Croatia will be further valorized. They are mostly based on digital tools through which tourists can get acquainted with the offer of the hinterland in a simple and intuitive way, and even book the same offer. These are:
- Virtual Eco-Museum “Terra di Passo” (Municipality of Riccia, Italy)
- One-stop information center “Traveler's House” (Marche Region, Italy)
- Sensory path of Istrian heritage (Agency for Rural Development of Istria, Croatia)
- MusLeo Virtual Museum (Municipality of San Leo, Italy)
- Territorial brand "In quest for the fifth element" (Zadar County Development Agency ZADRA NOVA, Croatia)
Finally, it is important to note that the Permanent Cross-Border Observatory was launched during the final technical conference, by signing a memorandum of understanding - between all partners and project stakeholders.
This means that there is a defined space for future cross-border cooperation within the MADE IN-LAND project, which may result in further development of the hinterland. Thus, the MADE IN-LAND project does not stop, but plans to further actively promote the heritage of the continental parts of the involved regions, both at the local and inter-territorial level.
