  The goal of the conference is to explore the ideas, problems and solutions of regions related to innovation and sustainability in Europe.

The objective is also to present the major outcomes of the INTERREG IVC PRESERVE (Peer REviews for Sustainable Eco-Regions Via Europe) project, which aimed at improving effectiveness of regional tourism development policies and supporting sustainable tourism.
