The EGTC TRITIA unites the Opole Voivodeship, Silesian Voivodeship, and Moravian-Silesian Region to enhance social, economic cohesion, and cooperation. Covering an area of 34,069 km² and home to 7.9 million people, the partnership promotes connectivity in transport, tourism, energy, and environmental policies. With common challenges such as the need for new investments and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, TRITIA seeks to innovate through cross-border clusters and support for small and medium enterprises (SMEs).
