The Garda ValSabbia Communities in Northern Italy share many of the same development challenges as those in the Sunart Oakwoods area. The transnational project was supported by Whelk Leader + over the period 2004-2006, and work is currently ongoing through the development of 'Sunart Oakwoods Initiative Training Network'.

The collaboration between Scottish and Italian partners has already involved the sharing of a wealth of ideas and experience from both areas, helping to develop skills to maximise the value of the natural resources of each area.
