Within the international project MED GIAHS<\/b>, the second thematic workshop<\/b> dedicated to strengthening the capacities of katun households and valorizing their traditional way of life through sustainable tourism<\/b> and the protection of the agricultural landscape<\/b> was held on March 26, 2025.<\/p>\n
The workshop took place at the office of the Regional Development Agency for Bjelasica, Komovi and Prokletije<\/b> and gathered a total of 32 participants<\/b> \u2013 including katun households from various parts of Montenegro<\/b>, experienced rural households<\/b> that have been engaged in rural tourism for many years, tourist guides<\/b>, agency representatives<\/b>, as well as the Administration for the Protection of Cultural Property<\/b>.<\/p>\n
Special value was added to the workshop through mutual learning and knowledge exchange<\/b>, where experienced hosts provided concrete support to katun families in creating a tourism offer based on authentic experience and tradition.<\/p>\n
In their joint work, the participants defined the mission and vision of the katuns<\/b> for the needs of the Montenegrin GIAHS application<\/b>, as well as the core experiences<\/b> that will form part of the future tourism offer in katuns<\/b>, with a special emphasis on preserving identity, sustainable use of natural resources, and the promotion of local gastronomy and lifestyle.<\/p>\n
The MED GIAHS<\/b> project is implemented with the support of the European Union<\/b> through the Interreg Euro-MED<\/b> program, within the “Sustainable Tourism” thematic cluster, with the aim of protecting and promoting globally significant agricultural systems<\/b> in the Mediterranean area.<\/p>\n
