... e dopo 3 bellissimi e intensissimi anni, volge al termine il progetto europeo rurAllure dedicato alla promozione della cultura lungo i cammini d'Europa. Di gran lunga l'esperienza lavorativa e umana per me più interessante, fatta di continui scambi di idee con professionisti del turismo provenienti da tutto il mondo, ma anche e soprattutto il primo vero ambiente SANO e stimolante con cui sono entrata in contatto. Tanti viaggi, tante trasferte, tante camminate, tante fiere, tanti eventi, tante call, tanti treni, meet, zoom e chi più ne ha più ne metta, ma soprattutto tanta voglia di mettersi in gioco e apportare nuovi spunti. Ma soprattutto le persone (Nicole Franciolini, Myra J.M. Stals, Luca Bruschi, Elena Dubinina, Martín López Nores e Uxío Novo in primis) Team internazionali di colleghi/e con cui davvero si lavora bene e dove proattività, entusiasmo, passione non sono solo parole usate per farcire un'home page. Con l'augurio che questi non siano che i primi passi di un cammino ancora molto, molto lungo 👣 Nos vemos en camino!

👉🏻👉🏻 This is not a goodbye, it’s a new STEP! 🔎 The Horizon2020 rurAllure project is coming to an end after 3 years, where professionals from six European countries worked together to enhance rural heritage along the Camino de Santiago, Via Francigena, Romea Strata, Via Romea Germanica, the Way of Mary and St. Olav’s Way, spanning over 11,000 km in18 countries. 🔎 In 2024 a new phase begins for rurAllure – its spin-off, the first in its kind European Cooperation Network along Pilgrimage Routes, officially launched in June 2023 in Norway, takes center stage. Stay tuned and thanks so much for joining us along this beautiful itinerary! 📌 Read about all the achievements of the projects and their way forward in the article: https://lnkd.in/dMZzg48U . #rurallure #Horizon2020 #culturalroutes

Memorandum between the Via Francigena and the Camino de Santiago On 6 November, Massimo Tedeschi, President of the European Association of the Via Francigena, and Ildefonso de la Campa Montenegro, President of the European Federation of the Saint James Ways, signed a Memorandum of Understanding, focused on collaboration between the two cultural routes of the Council of Europe, recognised in 1994 and 1987 respectively. The joint work includes valorisation of slow and sustainable tourism and cultural heritage linked to the paths; exchange of best practices and participation in promotion actions. Both Associations contributed to the rurAllure projects and were studied in the project pilots with special attention to their cultural heritage in rural areas. The agreement has a strategic value, considering the Roman Catholic Jubilee year in 2025 and two important anniversaries: 2023 - 30th anniversary of the French way of the Camino de Santiago as a UNESCO heritage site and 30 years of the recognition of the Via Francigena as a cultural route of the Council of Europe in 2024.  #rurallure #viafrancigena #caminodesantiago Elena Dubinina - Sami T. - Luca Bruschi

Filippo, @myviafrancigena on Instagram, inspired our community with his beautiful stories about summer travel along the Via Francigena, winning the rurAllure photo contest in 2023. This Tuscan pilgrim fell in love with hiking in his adolescence during summer parish retreats in the Dolomites. In 2013 he walked the Camino de Santiago along the French route. Last summer he accomplished the first 5 stages of the Via Francigena in Italy from the Great Saint Bernard Pass to Ivrea, reconnecting with himself and meeting new friends worldwide. Filippo has been living abroad for more than 10 years and returns to the Via Francigena whenever possible, as walking towards Rome is more than a physical destination: it's a reminder to set out "on the right path". #rurallure #viafrancigena #CaminoDeSantiago European Association of the Via Francigena - Council of Europe
