The Project / Outputs
The project outputs are clearly linked to the project’s objectives. The proposed interventions focus on the competence gap on accessible tourism among SMEs in the tourism sector by offering a comprehensive training in the fields of accessible tourism, innovation and sustainable development of natural and cultural heritage areas.
The main desired outputs of ALTER TRIP are:
- Training of all stakeholders on issues such as offering services to persons with disabilities
- Pilot Studies for the development of “accessibility” at selected heritage attractions on both sides, including light structural interventions (eg placement of ramps, printed guides in Braille etc).
- An Accessible Web Portal will be developed for communication and networking reasons, and also will serve as a tool platform where all potential disabled and elderly visitors would be able to design their trip to the CB area.
- At least 3 best practices of accessible tourism will be implemented in CB area.
- Participation to an International Tourism Fare.
- An Accessibility Guide, which shall provide useful instructions for stakeholders regarding the accessibility of services and infrastructure.
- A Guide for the actions relevant to information, publicity and promotion of accessibility, and of the overall project.
- Creation of a network among all stakeholders who shall communicate and continuously provide feedback to the digital platform.
- Creation of new jobs.
