The CREATOUR  project (“Creative Tourism Destination Development in Small Cities and Rural Areas”) is calling for all kinds of organizations, entities, and professionals in Portugal (Norte, Centro, Alentejo, and Algarve regions) willing to plan and implement creative tourism initiatives or projects, and to cooperate with researchers. Twenty organizations will be selected in this call (a) to develop pilot initiatives within the scope of creative tourism, for the next three years, with the collaboration of CREATOUR, and (b) to participate in regional and national “IdeaLabs” (events) where these pilot initiatives will be refined, presented, and discussed.

From this call, 5 ideas for creative tourism projects will be selected in each region.

Each idea will be developed further during a regional IdeaLab in spring 2017, presented at a National IdeaLab in May 2017, and implemented in summer 2017.

Projects which could contribute to sustainable and local grassroots development processes will be privileged.

Deadline for submissions: 15th January 2017
