Lombardy attentive and close to mountain territories
“With the financing of the 8 Strategies – concludes Sertori – the Lombardy Region confirms its attention to the valorisation of mountain territories and the Prealpine Valleys. It does this by supporting projects that promote its use throughout the year and encourage its economic and sustainable development. In fact, these are projects that bring our Lombardy to life, make it even more attractive and do so with attention to the environment and traditions. In full eco-sustainability”.
