The third technical meeting of the Venice Declaration Signatories project was programmed in hybrid mode. During 3 days, representatives of signatories presented the best practices achieved during the past year, and a final set of conclusions and recommendations is set to be included in the annual monitoring report of Inclusive Cities for Sustainable Families.
After two years of pandemic, families have shown their central place in local development through many ways, and those practices confirm and consolidate the need for implementing the ten points of the Venice Declaration.
The organizers want to express their gratitude to the hosts of this meeting for their contribution to its success.
