Abstract
In this paper, we will present the results of a project financed by the European Union - Interreg projects DANUrB and DANUrB+ (Danube Urban Brand). These projects included seven European countries including Serbia, with the basic idea of encouraging the development of cities along the Danube region by empowering sustainable tourism based on cultural and natural heritage and cross-border collaboration. The focus of the projects was on small and medium-sized cities on the Danube, which are actively facing and struggling with the problem of constant urban shrinkage, despite the natural and built potentials. On the territory of Serbia, cooperation was realized with Golubac, Sombor, Smederevo, and Bačka Palanka. The presented results of the project are divided into three categories: (01) Networking and cooperation with local governments and stakeholders; (02) Digitization and use of ICT to affirm the value of tangible and intangible heritage and (03) Education and cooperation with students. These results include the formation of a unique digital platform for stakeholders, as well as mobile applications for tourists, and the creation of a digital and analog Atlas. Also, active networking through workshops and meetings with local municipalities, providing expert assistance in the field of architecture and urbanism, as well as the affirmation of local heritage and open public spaces through the development of the "Danube Pavilion" in Golupac and the mural with a thematic representation of intangible local heritage in Sombor. All the aforementioned results of the project actively influence the strengthening of local communities of small and medium-sized towns on the Danube, through networking, digitization, and education.
