STRIVE

Turning festivals into platforms for sustainable tourism across the South Baltic

ABOUT: What is STRIVE?

STRIVE is a cross-border initiative, funded by the Interreg South Baltic Programme, that reimagines festivals as catalysts for sustainable tourism in the South Baltic.

From Malmö to Gdańsk, Bornholm to Klaipėda, we bring together festival organizers, cities, researchers, and innovators to reduce environmental impact, support local communities, and build a greener future for tourism.
