Centurio Interreg III C Programme

The Centurio Interreg IIIC Programme reached its end in December 2006. Centurio partnerships were both bi-lateral and multi-lateral. They entailed both first-step and follow-up activities. "Bridges" were established between the partnerships in order to enable regular contacts between the "Centurions". The Lead Partner and its Partner Regions worked jointly together.

The Regions of Europe have to take up the new challenges of a rapidly changing European and global context. Growth and competitiveness depend on the capacity of the Regions to enhance their self-development based on sustainability. To achieve this goal, the Centurio Interreg III C Programme, gathering almost 50 Regions and lead by the Assembly of European Regions, provided an interregional platform for exchange of know-how and experience in three key areas of regional sustainable development: sustainable economic development, environmental protection and sustainable quality tourism. The program also offered an opportunity for developing initiatives in these priority fields.

• Management and Coordination
• Sustainable quality tourism as a key tool for regional development
• Environmental protection: our envirmonment, our capital
• Investing in the regions' economic potential and in their human resources for fostering sustainable self-development and competitivness
• Centurio dissemination conferences and partnership 'bridge' activities
