During the meeting there will be the “Global Village”, a workshop on twinning of cities – and it will be presented the CREINTWIN Project, funded by the European Plan called “Europe for Citizens”, as part of initiatives to support for town twinning. It will be an opportunity to know the community leaders and NGOs representatives from different European countries: Portugal, Spain, Bulgaria, Slovakia, France, Latvia, Greece, Italy and Estonia and to promote steps to develop future projects on town twinning. The day will complete with a thank you drink that will also be an opportunity for networking.

The project was developed for the need to implement new skills to promote active citizenship and empower the municipal representatives and NGOs to acquire knowledge and skills to present and implement projects of town twinning.
