New project
The Spanish Federation of Municipalities and Provinces (FEMP) will take the opportunity to present the first lines of action of a project in which a work group, formed by representatives from the municipalities of Seville, Barcelona, San Sebastian, Madrid, Cuenca, Valencia, Valladolid, Santiago de Compostela and Gijon, is currently participating. The project’s chief aim is to create “municipal tourist management agencies with the active participation of the private sector”.
