From the 4th to the 6th of June 2018, on the occasion of the Austrian Presidency of the Alpine Convention, ISCAR organises the Forum Alpinum 2018, that will focus on water use.

The changing of environment and climate conditions such as the growing demand are leading to struggles for the use of water and its management in the Alps. The Forum Alpinum will identify the key elements of water use and management, by analysing possible conflicts and evaluating possible solutions.

Indeed, this meeting aims to provide a platform that facilitate tje dialogue between scientists, practitioner and policy makers to suggest policy recommendations on priority topics.

It is possible to participate and contribute to the Forum Alpinum, by proposing inputs to announced workshops, additional workshops or poster presentations. The contribution should be in line with the general topic of the Forum Alpinum or announced module and workshop topics. REGISTER HERE, the call will end on January 10, 2018

The Forum Alpinum 2018 and the 6th Water Conference as an integrated part of it are organised by the International Scientific Committee on Alpine Research (ISCAR) in cooperation with the Platform “Water management in the Alps” of the Alpine Convention and the Subgroup 3 “Integrated and sustainable water management” of Action Group 6 of the EU Strategy for the Alpine Region (EUSALP).

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 👏 ...
