3rd meeting of the Rhône-Alpes 2040 Mountain Council: on the digital way

The 3rd meeting of the Rhône –Alpes 2040 Mountain Council was held on the 27th June 2015 in Saint Andeol de Fourchades (France). This meeting gathered important personalities such as: the President of the Rhône-Alpes Region, the President of the Auvergne Region, the Rhône-Alpes 2040 Mountain Council and the Treasurer of Euromontana, André Marcon, among others. It gave the opportunity to discuss about the access to digital services in mountain areas as a key condition of equality, development and progress.

 The Rhône-Alpes 2040 Mountain Council has a twofold objective: on the one hand, it aims at reflecting about the best ways to promote and design appropriate scenarios for living and working in the mountains. And on the other hand, it aims at fostering the Montagne 2040 label as recognition for the good practices implemented that can serve as inspiration to those who want to develop a project in mountain areas.

 This time, 42 new projects have received the Montagne 2040 label. If you want to learn about all the 104 projects recognized by this label, please, click in these links: Conseil du 13 décembre 2014; Conseil du 25 juin 2014. (Only available in French)

Today, Euromontana had the pleasure to take part in the journalist training course “Transizione ecologica nelle aree montane: biodiversità, cambiamento climatico e sviluppo sostenibile”, organised by Università della Montagna with the Ordine dei Giornalisti della Lombardia (the Lombardy Association of Journalists 📰)The course, bringing together 65+ participants, focused on how to better understand and report on ecological transition in mountain areas, from biodiversity and climate change to sustainable development ⛰️👉This matters because the way mountain areas are reported shapes the way they are understood and, ultimately, the way they are governed!We were pleased to join our member UNIMONT in this exchange. Prof. Anna Giorgi highlighted the need to change the way mountain areas are perceived, beyond fragility and marginality. Stefano Sala then showed how issues such as depopulation, winter tourism, climate change and public policy require a more nuanced reading of mountain realities 🔍 For Euromontana, Guillaume Corradino brought a European perspective to the discussion. He stressed that :1️⃣ mountains are not Europe’s margins, but diverse and complex living territories, and 2️⃣ stronger place-based policies and European cooperation are needed to move from recognition to implementation.Thanks again for the organization, the opportunity, and to all the participants 👏 ...
