National Foundation for Civil Society Development, in cooperation with its strategic partner EURAC Research, organized a study trip from October 13 to 18, 2024, for collaborative organizations involved in i3.0 Strategic Partnerships for Innovation in Local Communities as part of the 'Community Potential' Program. Representatives from the Foundation for Sustainable Development of Local Communities and Tourism - Zora, Incubator for New Technologies "Trokut Šibenik", Relatomics Foundation, Public Institution for Culture "Fortress of Culture" Šibenik and European Foundation for Philanthropy and Social Development attended the study visit.
During the study trip, the participants visited Castelfranco Veneto, Bolzano, and Trento, where they had the opportunity to exchange knowledge and learn about successful practices in achieving goals related to social and solidarity economy, sustainable development, permaculture, and sustainable tourism, all with a strong emphasis on the application of technology. This focus on technology is one of the main aspects of the i3.0 Strategic Partnerships for Innovation in Local Communities within the 'Community Potential' Program, initiated with the goal of contributing to the further development of society and the potential of local communities through the actions of "change makers" within the communities involved.
The knowledge and experiences gained will allow the i3.0 Strategic Partners to implement them from November 7 to 9, 2024, when the first educational module of the 'Community Potential' Program is scheduled for over 100 young people and senior citizens (60+) from 8 cities and 10 high schools across 3 counties in the Republic of Croatia (LIST).
