Change of use for empty building to a touristic option, beginning with the school building
Changing from a rural to a soft-touristic town
Spreading awareness among the local population about the concept of integrated tourism to be developed by exploiting the available local resources and infrastructure.
Especially at local level the improvement of the tourist industry will mostly benefit the creation of job opportunities (catering and hotel activities). Other important spin-offs will be enhanced among the economic activities induced by tourism: handicraft, cheese and meat production of local farmers, the local brewery and all the goods with the ‘Bun Tschlin' brand will find new channels of distribution and selling.
The implementation of a soft idea of tourism with the new hotel will start at first with the founding of a new society, which should take care of the financial backing concerning the renovation and enlargement of the empty existing buildings.
A meningful learning from the experiences of the other partners countries and a fruitful exchange of best practices.

rural sector: A big part of the population works in the first section
tourism: Not 20 km from is the ski-area of Scuol. In the small towns around Scuol a not prospering rural tourism exists
toll-free-area: Tschlin own a toll-free-area in the valley of Samnaun and can profit financially of it
