#PI2025 #VALSPREMEMB #ONDADELCAMBIAMENTO #WAVEOFCHANGE

Piran, Izola, Koper and Ankaran (PIKA) have joined forces and are running together for European Capital of Culture 2025!

We sail on!

The Expert Council of Independent Experts placed #WaveofChange in the second selection round.

Thank you to everyone who contributed their time, ideas and passion to our joint project!

I WOULD LIKE TO CONTRIBUTE

How can I participate?

Your ideas represent the basic elements of designing the European Capital of Culture candidacy program and are therefore immensely valuable.

We need a lot of energy and a genuine desire to co-create a better living environment and long-term changes in the Istrian cultural space. All citizens and local communities living and creating on the Istrian peninsula are invited to participate.

How do the citizens of Piran, Izola, Koper and Ankaran experience our cities?

The European Capital of Culture represents an important opportunity for the cities and the region to develop their cultural life and infrastructure. New spaces, new arts and cultural activities, new initiatives and connections with other countries are just some of the possibilities for development. Above all, it’s not just a year-long process. It takes more than five years of preparation, and the impact on the region can last a decade or more!
