Arrabona EGTC

Arrabona EGTC held a Cross-border Tourism Development Forum on 18 April 2024, hosted by the Archabbey of Pannonhalma, with the support of the cross-border Small Project Fund.  

The forum was attended mainly by tourism operators and representatives of the Szigetköz-Žitný ostrov regions, tourism service providers and representatives of the region. The aim of the event was to further strengthen cross-border relations between the tourism organisations of Szigetköz and Žitný ostrov.

The joint workshop developed a tourism value system using the pair-comparison method, the results of which will be used in the development of a promotional board game for the region. This will be announced by Arrabona EGTC in the future.
