10 – 12 May 2017: Multiplier Event in Potes/Cantabria

Venue: Centro De Estudios Lebaniegos, Plaza de la Independenzia, s/n, 39570 Potes

The Spanish Multiplier Event was organised by our Spanish partner Sociedad Regional Educación, Cultura y Deporte (SRECD ) together with the Association of Mountain Municipalities, the Regional Ministry for Rural Environment, Fishery and Food of Cantabria and the Rural Development Network of Cantabria. Mrs Pilar Bahamonde of SRECD presented the EUROPETOUR survey and analysis of training needs for cultural and spiritual tourism in rural areas. She also gave an outlook on the eight training modules and the social media guidelines, which are currently being developed, analysing their relevance for the mountain region of Cantabria in order to prepare training sessions at the Centro de Estudios Lebaniegos,  in Potes.

The 84 attendees of the event took home a lot of inspiration for their own tourism activities. Dedicated training sessions for specific cultural touristic topics were announced by SRECD.
