Our first aim is to involve in the “Ulysses Project” the different places of Mediterranean coast, where Ulysses landed on his journey. We want to twin all these places, this year we are going to twin Djerba, in Tunisia, with our country, the land of the Mermaid Leucosia. The myth tells that the Mermaid Leucosia is buried here, on the little homonymous island and since twenty years we have connected to her name the “Leucosia Prize”. This prize is given all men who have made Cilento known in the world or which have reached great results in different fields.
This year the “Ulysses Project” provides for two phases: the twin with one of the places where Ulysses landed and this place’s knowledge through “the week of the nation”. In this way our society can better knows Mediterranean realities, which we considered above all for their negative aspects, and the foreign societies can better know our country. So we hope giving a little help to free people from those prejudices which do difficult the peace in the Mediterranean Sea. Another project is to twin a Syrian town, under UNESCO’s protection, with Castellabate, protected by UNESCO too.
