rEdESIGN Partners Meet in Rethymno to Advance Sustainable Planning

Friday, 19 June 2026/SourceGoogle News/1 min read
Partners of the European project "rEdESIGN" gathered in Rethymno for a coordination meeting hosted by the Region of Crete, which serves as the lead partner on the initiative. The rEdESIGN project focuses on regional development and sustainable planning across participating European territories. Rethymno, located on Crete's northern coast roughly midway between Heraklion and Chania, is one of the island's most historically rich cities, known for its Venetian harbor and well-preserved old town. While the meeting itself is administrative in nature, EU-funded regional projects of this kind often support infrastructure, tourism sustainability, and local heritage preservation efforts that benefit visitors to Crete over the longer term. Tourists in Rethymno can expect no disruption from this event.
