🚀 NAVIMORE is officially underway!

On 8 September, Forum AIC participated at the Kick-off Meeting of NAVIMORE, the new Interreg Italy-Croatia project, marking the beginning of a new journey towards stronger cooperation and more effective cross-border governance between Italy and Croatia.

The meeting provided an opportunity to align on the project's objectives, activities and next steps, with a particular focus on interoperability and the development of a Cross-Border Governance Model.

Forum AIC was present at the 13th REDETE Conference as a supporting organisation, promoting dialogue and transnational cooperation across the Adriatic–Ionian Area. During the conference, NAVIMORE was also presented as part of our ongoing work to overcome data fragmentation and strengthen governance in the macroregion.

🔗 By strengthening interoperability and fostering closer institutional cooperation, NAVIMORE aims to support more coordinated approaches across borders and build governance solutions that can respond to shared challenges and opportunities in the Italy–Croatia area.

🤝 From kick-off to conference: two moments, one mission — turning cross-border cooperation into more connected, efficient and sustainable governance.
Stay tuned for the next steps and updates from NAVIMORE!
