The Krka National Park participated on Sunday, October 6, at the EU Funds Fair in Šibenik, organized by the Ministry of Regional Development and funds of the European Union in cooperation with institutions in the system of managing and controlling the use of EU funds. It is an informative and entertaining event open to the interested public with the aim of educating and informing visitors about the possibilities of using grants from EU funds.
The Krka National Park presented its own projects financed by EU funds at the Fair, since the Park has been an extremely successful beneficiary of EU funds in recent years. The projects The Unknown Krka: Hidden Treasures of the Upper and Middle Courses of the Krka River, currently underway in the northern part of the Krka National Park and the rural areas along its border, and the Visitors Management Center of the Krka National Park – Lozovac were presented. Both projects were co-financed by the European Union from the European Regional Development Fund.
The project The Unknown Krka: Hidden Treasures of the Upper and Middle Courses of the Krka River was implemented with the aim of activating the untapped tourist and economic potentials of the northern part of the Krka National Park, with a more even spatial and temporal distribution of visitors and the overall social, economic, and environmental improvement of the area.
The project of the Visiting Management Center of the Krka National Park – Lozovac, through the construction of infrastructure for the reception, management, and education of visitors, aims to increase the attractiveness of the Krka National Park as a tourist attraction, to strengthen educational capacities for the interactive education and information of visitors, to achieve a better spatial and temporal scheduling of visitors, and an overall social, economic, and environmental prosperity.
