A publication on an educational trail from Doberdob to Sovodnje, Miren and to Preserje was conceived as a result of work of pupils of participating primary schools and a publication on cultural heritage of water wells was designed. Public events were organized at the location of water wells on both sides of the border and a Water Well Trail was designed to connect water wells in the cross-border environment.
