THE ESCARTONS AND WALDESIAN VALLEYS LAG

Operating in an area that stretches over the Alpine valleys of the Pinerolo basin, the Susa Valley and the Sangone Valley, the Escartons and Waldesian Valleys LAG supports the local economic and social fabric by participating in projects, issuing public calls for tenders and providing funding for local entities. It also encourages territorial animation and the creation of networks between the area’s active forces.

From the local community to our team, always with the idea of putting people at the centre.
