In the recent years the number of cultural cooperation in the border region has significantly dropped, although Croatian-Hungarian cultural projects had a long standing history in the past.

Even though Pécs and Osijek are two historical towns in the region with many cultural assets and similar characteristics, the border seems to divide them despite of their geogpraphical, cultural, ethnical and historical closeness. In the framework of this project the partners will renew this crossborder cooperation and will also build new connections between the two countries based on their existing networks.

The project will bring the people of the two cities closer to each other and raise awareness of the culture of the close neighbour. The artists and authors of the border region will have more opprotunities and will benefit professionally from the international cooperation long term.
