To know more about the Sostenuto project...

Sostenuto is a project of micro-territorial experiments on the links between culture, economy, social topics and democracy in the Med space. Through the exploration of innovative practices in the cultural sector - incubator, cluster, LETSystem, new modes of territorial governance - it aims at reinforcing the cultural sector's innovation capacity in the Mediterranean zone, accompanying its mutation towards new economic and social models and valorising its innovation capacity towards decision makers, spatial planners and financers.
