Results

Fifteen projects from different parts of the Basque territory were showcased at the fair, including projects developed in the Basque Autonomous Community, the Autonomous Community of Navarre, and projects launched in the Basque territories of New Aquitaine.
The fair also provided an opportunity to learn about different experiences (leisure, sport, social transformation) and to create opportunities for cross-border exchange of these experiences, strengthening relations between different associations.
The catalogue compiled from the projects presented at the fair will aim to explore in greater depth the networks and cooperation opportunities that emerged from the event.
