5 videos to explain how mountain stakeholders can benefit from the Cohesion Policy funds

On April 2022, Montana174 releases 5 videos to explain how local stakeholders mountain regions can benefit from the funds of the 2021-2027 Cohesion Policy.

The 2021-2027 Cohesion Policy finances initiatives in mountains areas

The Cohesion Policy is the EU’s main investment policy that aims at reducing territorial disparities across Europe’s regions.  Between 2021 and 2027, about € 392 billion– almost a third of the European budget– has been set aside for the Cohesion Policy. These funds can be used to finance projects and initiatives in mountain areas in order to boost innovation, support youth and employment, foster tourism, accelerate climate adaptation and mitigation, enhance mobility.

5 capacity building videos to get you ready

However, mountain stakeholders are often unaware of the opportunities linked to the funds of the Cohesion Policy. To this end, Montana174 has interviewed local experts in the 5 mountain regions of the project to ask them how mountain stakeholders can access from these funds and what are the benefits for them.

As result, Montana174 partners released 5 short videos with the views of regional Managing Authorities and local experts from Aragon Region (Spain), Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region (France), Croatia, Lombardy Region (Italy) and Slovenia.

Moreover, in between April and July 2022, Montana174 partners will organise local workshops to prepare mountain stakeholders to uptake the funds of the Cohesion Policy. Further information will be made available in the website.

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 👏 ...
