This paper refers to a participatory experience entitled “BEYOND ANY LIMIT. Rethinking borders in the new Europe'', which was meant to imagine a “Widespread and Resilient Cross border Park'' between the Italian city of Gorizia and the Slovene city of Nova Gorica; the URBINAT project and its cross-border healthy corridor plan made the experience possible. On this occasion, citizens and researchers were invited to think about a specific border area in the urban continuous agglomerate of Gorizia and Nova Gorica, by investigating four main themes: environment, urban planning, landscape, and infrastructure. The results of this set of public events and the reflections from the week-long training seminar that preceded it are the basis for possible further participatory planning activities with the involvement of citizens from the cross-border area. This will also allow us to achieve more resilient spatial planning also in the perspective of the GoBorderless 2025 European Capital of Culture, the goals and finances of which represent an invaluable opportunity.
