Description
Description (EN): The peculiarity of the programme area is the presence of WW1 heritage, of extraordinary historical significance, sometimes poorly preserved, with untapped potential for tourism development. The project will contribute to transforming the current situation through shared cross-border activities aimed at the long-term conservation of WW1 heritage and increasing its use in view of the development of sustainable cultural tourism. Studies, exhibitions, cultural and commemorative events will be carried out to strengthen the general knowledge and awareness of WW1 heritage. Targeted training and networking activities for tour operators, organisations and other stakeholders will be carried out to encourage the development of the new tourism offer. To strengthen the joint promotion and marketing of WW1 heritage, a main Peace Trail brand with marketing guidelines, a website and other dissemination material will be introduced. New thematic routes, info-points and centres with interactive and innovative heritage presentations will be updated and organised. Small scale investments will be aimed at preserving WW1's extraordinarily valuable heritage.

Read more Achievements (EN): A new brochure for The Walk of Peace from the Alps to the Adriatic trail, WALKofPEACE project:
In October Upper Soča Valley Development Centre and the Pivka Military History Park issued a new promotional leaflet for the Walk of Peace from the Alps to the Adriatic trail. The content for the brochure was prepared and designed by the Walk of Peace in the Soča Region Foundation. The main purpose of the promotional brochure is to familiarize visitors with the key heritage sights of the Isonzo Front on the 500 km-long trail of the Walk of Peace and also outside the main trail, in the area from Ljubljana to Venice (Pivka, Ragogna, San Dona di Piave and Cavallino Treporti), with points of interest that are key in understanding World War I in this cross-border area. The brochure highlights sights that offer digitized experiences of World War I heritage and guided tours. The brochure is printed in Slovene, Italian and English languages and will be available in seven Walk of Peace Visitors Centres in Slovenia and Italy, other tourist-information centres and major service providers along the Walk of Peace.
A journey through history, along what was once the Isonzo front and then the Lower Piave front during the Great War. Here is the Walk of Peace:
The video, created with the Interreg ITA-SLO "Walk of Peace" project by the company TinBob in collaboration with the project partners, describes with images the experience that hikers will be able to do along the route, from the Julian Alps to the Adriatic Sea. 450 km from Log pod Mangartom to Trieste crossing landscapes, localities and cities today symbols of peaceful coexistence without borders, once divided by conflict. But not only: in addition to the actual itinerary, there are also other places that are part of the project and its spirit such as Ragogna, home to various itineraries linked to the history of the Caporetto retreat, and the Basso Piave area where the front is moved into the last year of the war.
"The Garden of the Meeting of Gorizia, between history, nature and culture":
Inaugurated on 2 July last after various refurbishment and reorganization works, the Giardino dell'Incontro in Borgo Castello in Gorizia is now a privileged place from which to admire the city and the splendid landscape on the horizon from east to west, from the Fajiti to Calvario. A place where to stop and that, thanks to its proximity to the Great War Museum, invites one to meditate on the history and tragedy that covered this land with blood. An evocative space, therefore, in which art, in all its noblest forms of expression, can also find hospitality. This was the case during the three evenings of dance, music and history organized last September by the Regional Agency for Cultural Heritage of Friuli Venezia Giulia, during which a series of animated dances, organized by a.ArtistiAssociati, simulated the blossoming of plants, their birth, their taking root in the territory that hosts them, thus recounting the festive and peaceful blossoming of the garden. The evenings were accompanied by the projection of the video installation "Artists, war and post-war in the Gorizia area", produced by Cameranebbia together with the Provincial Museums of Gorizia and the Milko Kos Institute of the Academy of Sciences and Arts of Ljubljana. A multimedia path pag. 3 that, since last July 3, has been available in the halls of the Great War Museum and will be made available to all project partners, who will soon receive a link and instructions on how to download it. It is an interactive journey through the works of six artists from the territory who lived at the turn of the First World War, an unusual point of view on the political and social events of the war and post-war years, which help to understand how our territory has always been a place where cultural contributions of different origins have crossed: Nordic, Slavic and Mediterranean. The artists of the Gorizia area, trained in the cultural centers of Mitteleuropa, in Italian art cities, some in Paris, have above all mediated between the various trends with a mutual exchange of contaminations, thus developing the characteristics of a "border" land. This is not only true for the artistic aspects, but also political, social and cultural life. The initiative is part of the Walk of Peace project, a European Interreg Programme Italy/Slovenia, which aims at sustainable development of the heritage of the First World War between the Alps and the Adriatic and of which Posoški razvojni centre, ERPAC FVG, Veneto Region are part, Ustanova "Fundacija Poti miru v Posočju", Association GAL Venezia Orientale, Znanstvenoraziskovalni center Slovenske akademije znanosti in umetnosti, PromoTurismoFVG, Mestna Občina Nova Gorica, Javni zavod za upravljanje dediščine in turizem Pivka, Municipality of Ragogna.
Kambreško – a renovated water reservoir:
The Municipality of Nova Gorica, a project partner, carried out the renovation of a water reservoir (trough) from World War I located in the village of Kambreško. The renovation works were carried out in cooperation with the local community of Kambreško and the Municipality of Kanal ob Soči. The water reservoir was primarily used for the needs of the army on the Isonzo Front, and was later on used to supply water to livestock. Both the inside and outside of the reservoir were renovated to prevent it from ruin. Nowadays, the reservoir nicely complements the Walk of Peace that runs along the Kanalski Kolovrat ridge, as a welcoming source of refreshing water to numerous hikers and bikers that pass it on their way. The renovation works were carried out following guidelines from the Nova Gorica Regional Office of the Institute for the Protection of Cultural Heritage.
Appointments with the journalists Aldo Cazzullo and Paolo Mieli:
Thanks to the WALKofPEACE project it was possible to organise two appointments in San Donà di Piave and Portogruaro with the presence of two important representatives of the Italian historical/journalistic scenario. On Wednesday 8 December at 4.00 p.m. a conference was held at the Leonardo Da Vinci Auditorium in San Donà di Piave, dedicated to the First World War, with the participation of the journalist and writer Aldo Cazzullo. The conversation with the author was based on his book "La guerra dei nostri nonni" (Our Grandparents' War), published by Mondadori, and was particularly lively and engaging, with quotations of letters from the front and poems by soldiers/poets that created an atmosphere of empathy in the auditorium towards the suffering endured by our young soldiers during the conflict. Interesting comments were also made by the speaker, who regretted the difficult involvement of young people in these historical topics. On Friday 10 December at 9 p.m., an evening dedicated to the First World War entitled "Conversations on the First World War" was held at the Russolo Theatre in Portogruaro, with the presence of the journalist and historian Paolo Mieli. The historian emphasised how the Great War can be considered the founding moment of the Italian State, from the point of view of the spirit of belonging, since for the first time soldiers from all over Italy fought side by side to defend the homeland. The tragic nature of the First World War due pag. 7 to trench warfare was also emphasised, which is why the memory of the First World War must be kept alive for the new generations. At the end of the events, both speakers stopped to meet the large audience and to autograph their books, which were made available to the organisation and by Vegal. In total, the two events counted more than 600 participants.
