This summer, in Tirana, Albania, there was organized the fourth edition of “Terra Madre Balkans” in the framework of ESSEDRA, an important project co-financed by the European Union and Slow Food.
About 350 delegates from 13 places of the Balkans (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Cyprus, Kosovo, Monte Negro, The Republic of Macedonia, Rumania, Serbia, Turkey, Italy and Albania) joined this wonderful event, where the main focus was the promotion of new sustainable models of the rural development under the slogan “Farmers on the Top!”.
