Co-financed by the Polish-Czech INTERREG V-A Program, this project aimed at creating a platform for cross-border dialogues between European countries with historically conflictual pasts. During a series of study visits to different border regions in Europe, the TEIN project partners exchanged experiences and best practices regarding obstacles caused by historical, political and ethnical or national tensions with representatives of governments, universities, research institutions, NGOs and other actors of cross-border cooperation.
Based on the conclusions of the cross-border forums, site visits, discussions and brainstorming sessions a joint action plan of recommendations was developed for the area of the Polish-Czech Euroregion Cieszyn Silesia, focused on building and developing mutual relations between Poles and Czechs, taking into account their difficult mutual history.
