Euromontana’s 2022 booklet of good practices out: 17 good practices to drive sustainable mountain development

As 2022 starts as the International Year of Sustainable Mountain Development, Euromontana opens the year with the publication of its annual collection of good practices. This booklet showcases 17 inspiring initiatives from all over Europe (UE and non-UE) and is the result of the exchange of good practices carried out by Euromontana in 2021 in order to promote initiatives capable of driving change in mountain areas.

From agriculture and rural development to daily mobility, sustainable mountain tourism, energy transition and innovative education in mountain villages, this booklet presents interesting initiatives to be transferred and adapted in other mountain territories.

How can mountain areas stay attractive for the youth and how to create appealing job offers in villages? How can ski resorts change their model to mitigate and adapt to climate change? How can the on-demand approach be used to maintain access to rail or road transport for mountain populations? Find out in our 2022 booklet of good practices for the sustainable development of mountain areas!

Do you want to share your initiative with other mountainous regions? Send us your good practice!

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 👏 ...
