On January 29th, the first Local Stakeholder meeting (LSG) of project Local Flavours took place in Riga Planning Region. The main aim was to familiarize the participants with each other and to identify existing tourism objects in the Riga planning region in order to create an up-to-date joint tourism offer.
In the first part of the meeting, the project's lead expert S. Skudra and the project coordinator K. Potapova introduced the project objective and its main activities, as well as the functions of the region and the main development planning documents.
In the second part of the meeting, the thematic expert E. Ražinskis invited the participants to a discussion, describing the current tourism trends in the region and directed the discussion on the evaluation of the potential of good practice.
At the end of the meeting, the participants agreed on a collaboration where the thematic expert identifies good practices and, through interviews, identifies the potential for developing the region's overall tourism offer.
The collaborative results will be used to develop the project action plan.
