#EUTour of Italy: stop-over 13 in Veneto

This year the Italian tour is coloured with Europe. The European Commission Representation in Italy will take part in the 2018 edition of the Tour, to give value to the European presence in our territories and EU actions in the fields of sport, health, environment and sustainable mobility.
Throughout the Italian tour, a RV with the colors of the EU flag will join the "snake" of the caravan, to inform the citizens and sport fans about the European policies dedicated to the environment, sport, health, sustainable mobility and food security.

In addition, along the Italian stages of the Tour, which have run from 8 to 27 May throughout the peninsula, were located dozens of natural and artistic sites restored, enhanced or reconstructed by the EU in Italy. Every day the European Commission will highlight these and other sites, without forgetting research and innovation projects, Italian PDO products, support for small and medium-sized Italian companies.

The European Commissioner Tibor Navracsics, responsible for culture, sport, education and youth, said: "the Italian Tour is a wonderful opportunity to rediscover and enhance hundreds of sites of the Italian cultural heritage that have been renovated or rebuilt thanks to EU support: Combining sport and culture is a unique opportunity to underline the power of both tbringing people together and build a stronger European identity - fully in the spirit of the European Year of Cultural Heritage that we celebrate in 2018.
