S-OpenCities, following of OPEN CITIES(09/0041), continues promoting EU policies through educational & deep impact cultural initiatives at regional,national & EU level thanks to specific actions aimed at developing integration of intercultural dialogue,social inclusion,active citizenship,foster EU values & encourage a transnational approach within a local dimension. 

Priverno,conscious of the value of its cultural background & experience is proud to involve as PP some Municipalities that took already part in the previous Network & a new one,Giuliano di Roma,but also other international friends who can participate to the 3 events to bring an added value.

Main objectives & challenges Priverno has planned are to dynamically promote sustainability,competitiveness & enhancement of local identity to produce a low impact on the environment & encourage the respect of local specificities through a focused info campaign on cultures & traditions of the communities visited.

The Municipality of Priverno, in synergy with Wallenhorst, Breclav, Stawiguda, Andrychow, Roccasecca and Giuliano di Roma, strongly wants to propose the Sustainable Open Cities-SOC project in order to train and educate the citizenship to this new kind of active tourism and increase the know-how on its potentialities, unfortunately still little explored.

SOC is an intercultural pilot bottom-up initiative promoting active sustainable tourism for a low impact on the environment and the respect of local features through an info campaign on culture and traditions of the communities visited.

Through the info and awareness social campaign SOC wants to promote a kind of sustainable tourism which leads to the management of all resources in such a way that economic and social needs can be fulfilled while maintaining cultural integrity, essential ecological processes, biological diversity, socio-economic development systems bringing to economic cohesion, social inclusion, increased opportunities.

The accomplishment of this Thematic Network foresees the realization of 3 international events, 2 in Italy and 1 in Poland.
