This meant an increase in tourism, a revival of traditional culture and skills, an increasing demand for local products and thus improved living conditions. Highly illustrated with beautiful pictures by Nana Kofi Acqua. Published in co-operation with Urban Solutions, Rotterdam with support by the European Commission.
