Both Genoa and Dubrovnik rolled out the project activities with the active participation of local stakeholders that will be invited to participate in HERIT ADAPT as well.
- The ‘Genoa City Pass’ tool, the official tourist pass to discover Genoa will be exploited. This tool can be topped up more times for free, without limits, to give a maximum saving and according to the interests of the tourist. It includes free public transport tickets to move in the city and free entrance to the main museums of the city.

(EN), TransCPEarlyWarning - Establishment of TRANSnational Civil Protection EARLY WARNING System to improve the resilience of Adrion territories to natural and man-made risks, 2020-2022 (Interreg ADRION)
- The project addresses the challenges of enhancing the level of uniformity, homogeneity and similarity of existing CP Early Warning, efficiently integrating them to predict risks, present alert levels and improve exchange of information with EU CP Mechanism. This approach is built on 3 pillars:
- Participatory process with the establishment of a networking structure as a stable cooperation relationship between project partners, CP organizations and main stakeholders with a long term perspective.
- It relates to its activation to change from traditional "vulnerable element" to "active sensor" of emergencies to obtain their contribution to CP emergency activities. Innovative Transnational network relates to the development of an innovative Warning System, a web platform able to integrate heterogeneous data. Establishment of a strategy and drafting of an Action Plan providing a common vision enhancing level of uniformity and similarity to make available to National/Regional Authorities a transnational uniform emergency basis. The overall objective is to increase cooperation level among National CP right from the early warning stage and better ensuring EU CP Mechanism intervention through an innovative and holistic networking approach with a lever effect also after project end, supporting the whole system of CP; keep open a real-time update channel on risk occurrences by collecting and using information provided; implement a Raising Awareness intervention of emergencies.
- Expected change is the promotion of homogenization among early warning legislation and processes, reinforcement of coordination and cooperation of ADRION CP chains of command, and convergence of IPA CP operation to EU CP standards by transfer of experiences and lessons learnt.

- The project aims to identify innovative, replicable and sustainable Public Private Cooperation management models of the historical sites by valorising them through setting up Cultural and Creative Industries.
- The objective of "Forget Heritage" was to promote cooperation among participating cities in order to identify innovative replicablend sustainable private public cooperation management models of the abandoned historical sites - recognised as cultural heritage. The partnership aimed to provide recommendations for other cities on how to enhance the hidden potential of the cultural heritage to influence the quality of life of the citizens and cultural creative industry operators who could have new working opportunities and boost their managerial skills.
- Further results are: a management manual, transnational training model and - in view of pilot actions an ex-ante assessment and ex-post evaluation happened. The project also developed tools to indicate buildings in underutilised areas ideal for cultural and creative use. Transnational cooperation allowed us to find novel solutions. Collective results to influence national policies, develop human resources and strengthen local managerial systems were the added values of this collaboration.
