| WHY TOWN-TWINNING |
The Aims
Dialogue; an exchange of ideas and experiences; participation; sharing of problems, common projects and solutions; exchange of knowledge. These are the ideas and beliefs behind the idea of "town twinning".
This is a viable instrument in "developing the region", to "know" and "be known" in wider Europe.
This is an exciting opportunity for local town councils and administrations, already dynamic and active participants in their local region, to act and contribute in a decisive way to the creation of a unique European identity, that of the "European citizen". |
|
|
The Main Players
Towns and communities of different languages, cultures, traditions and economic backgrounds.
A formal agreement between the different communities involved, however geographically distant from each other, ratified – with particular reference to the differences – the precise nature of the relationship and the determination to meet periodically to confront common issues; the will to “twin” with each other and develop relationships, culturally, economically, politically, and socially, through local institutions, interested parties, associations between towns and citizens in every part of Europe. |
|
The Benefits
The development of the region, local territory, visibility at European level, economic and collaborative exchanges, a reciprocal meeting of minds. These are just some of the positive effects of “Town twinning” to be seen in the areas of civic, economic and moral involvement.
All these benefits are possible. The how-to is easy.
Conferences, meetings*, information materials and brochures, these are all tools to help communities to know and understand the potential and the value of being a participant in the “town twinning” project”. |
