Promotion of Slovenia
In Slovenia, all the colours of the cultural and biological diversity of the Alps, the Mediterranean Sea, the Pannonian Plain, and the Karst merge into a "Slovenian green", which represents both the pristine nature of the country and the zeal of the Slovenian people to preserve it in this state. Greenness is the foundation of the country brand "I feel Slovenia", which represents our country both at home and around the world.

The Slovenian Presidency was based on four priorities under the slogan "Together. Resilient. Europe." Working with the European institutions and the Member States, it has strengthened the EU’s resilience to various crises and helped countries with the post-pandemic recovery and digital transformation. It has also made important progress in improving working conditions, the security of European citizens and the process of enlargement to the Western Balkans.
