About us

ICRA was established in 1999 as a limited liability company, owned by Municipalities of Idrija and Cerkno. Its purpose is to promote local development in the sub-region of Idrija and Cerkno, but it operates also on regional level as part of regional development agency for Goriška region. 

ICRA operates in the following fields:

  • Business development
  • Human resource development
  • Rural development
  • Regional development
  • Environment and spatial planning
  • Cultural heritage preservation and development

Employees have a lot of experiences in project management in the field of fostering development of entrepreneurship, human resources, environment and spatial planning, rural development, cultural heritage and tourism. Employees are involved in different projects on local, regional or international level. We have enough resources – human and financial – for running such projects.

We are very result oriented, so we seek and prepare projects that have a tangible impact. We are connecting different stakeholders of local and regional development. We have lots of experiences, connections and good practise from different EU projects.
