The meeting of the twin towns will be held between 4-6 August in Cristuru Secuiesc, where nearly 700 guests will come from three countries: Romania, Hungary and Slovakia. The main topic of the meeting will be solidarity, European integration processes and the aftereffect of the Covid-19 pandemic. 

The delegates of the participating settlements will discuss these topics through presentations, roundtable discussions and brainstorming activities with the involvement of experts. In addition, they will participate in cultural activities, such as folk song evenings, folk dance performances and the presentation of characteristics of folk costumes. At the same time, during a cooking competition, they can experience each other’s gastronomy and traditional flavors. 

The program also includes activities for young people and children, as our staff prepares handicraft activities for the youngest, while older and young adults can hear more about various project opportunities and volunteer opportunities provided by the European Union. 

In addition to the invited guests, we welcome the residents of the settlement and the region to the meeting, trusting that everyone will find the right program offer for them.  

The project is supported by the European Union.
