The European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) is organizing a “CLimate-Smart Forestry in MOuntain Regions” (CLIMO) workshop.

 

Topic
Forestry has a key role to play when it comes to meeting the EU’s climate goals. The new LULUCF Regulation is the third pillar of the EU’s 2030 climate and energy framework, together with the Effort Sharing regulation and the revised ETS directive, towards a binding legal framework for the EU’s efforts to reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions by at least 40% by 2030, compared to 1990 levels. Yet, this regulatory outline needs to realistically support and incentivize the adoption of climate-friendly practices, for enhancing mitigation, adaptation and production actions in the forestry sector.
The EU’s funding instrument COST has supported the Action CLIMO (Climate-Smart Forestry in Mountain Regions), which aims at reorienting forestry to challenge the adverse impacts of climate change. CLIMO provides contribution to the creation of new knowledge, facilitating the implementation of climate objectives. This workshop will provide a thematic platform for project promoters and stakeholders, and tools.

The workshop will be held in Stará Lesná, Slovakia. More information on the detailed programme and registration will soon be available here.

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 👏 ...
