The Historic Towns Association (HTA) is an multinational NGO. The HTA's aim is to raise awareness about historic settlements in the Harvian Islands, Lovia, Mäöres, Brunant and Libertas, and have cooperation between them, through an IGO (or government bodies) to discuss issues such as archaeology, restoration and tourism.
