EU RUR_TouriSMEs - under evaluation

The EU RUR_TouriSMEs project (under evaluation SMP-COSME-2021-TOURSME-01) aims to create a smooth and effective support scheme for European tourism SMEs to increase their capacity for measurement and analysis of sustainability performance, supporting them in identifying and using tools to overcome the barriers and stagnation caused by COVID-19, and using the pandemic as a launchpad toward greater sustainability and more intelligent, resilient practices. The project will focus in particular on the rural tourism sector, which "has high potential for stimulating local economic growth and social change because of its ability to complement other economic activities, its contribution to GDP and job creation, and its capacity for encouraging the dispersion of demand over time (combating seasonality) and across a wider territory.” ENIT is in charge of the WP4 and is Event Manager.
