Abstract

Territorial cooperation today is one of the main objectives of the European Union's regional policy. Significant progress has been made in the euroregional association of Europe in the 1990s. At that time Croatia got its first Euroregion. It was The Danube–Drava–Sava Euroregion (1998). The article analyzes intercultural dialogue and cultural interaction within that Euroregion through three categories of relevant data for this research - general information, historical heritage and cultural events. The aim of this paper is to determine whether this Euroregion has a successful intercultural dialogue and cultural cooperation and, if so, how it has been achieved. The paper also deals with a shorter parallel analysis of intercultural dialogue and cultural cooperation between this and the remaining two Croatian Euroregions.
