The programme was particularly interactive and focused on the future:

Wednesday 6th November: In depth General Assembly

The members were assembled for a full working-day in order to, in addition to the usual statutory items:

  • review network activities, exchange and decide about the future, from now until 2016, the year of the 20th anniversary of Euromontana, and beyond;
  • discuss about how to improve our impact on the European policies and on the field;
  • study the possibilities to develop our network and attract new members;
  • work together to prepare our projects through a “brokerage event”: a project incubating session to gather ideas and prepare the partnerships for the multiple calls for projects scheduled from 2014 onwards (particularly INTERREG EUROPE and Horizon 2020).

There were Preparatory activities in order to take advantage of that day at best.

Thursday 7th November: Listening to entrepreneurs!

We organised, to the attention of Euromontana members and specifically invited mountain regions, a conference on innovative entrepreneurship in mountain areas. Entrepreneurs told us about their experience and communicated their needs. We then discussed how to help them as best as we can.

And that's a wrap for the first Euromontana Board of Directors meeting of the year 🇮🇹 Last week, the Board members examined the development of the network and reported on ongoing activities and plans for the coming months, as well as the network's advocacy priorities! 🏔️ The day also included a tour of the Università della Montagna premises, (who are kindly hosting the meetings) and meeting with Luca Masneri, the Mayor of the Commune of Edolo. We had the pleasure to hear presentations from B.I.M. del Sarca President, who act to safeguard the rights of mountain communities by providing compensation for the hydroelectric development of the River Sarca and its tributaries, as well as from CALRE (the Conference of European Regional Legislative Assemblies), presenting their annual priorities 💡 A lot of food for thought here, so stay tuned!👀 Curious about our governing bodies and ways of functioning?

🇮🇹 Live from Edolo were Euromontana's Board of Directors is gathering for its first meeting of the year!Yesterday, the group reached the 3,000 m to witness the impact of climate change on tourism and on the Presena glacier, explained by Consortia Pontedilegno-Tonale, and then learned about the alteration of the alpine ecosystem from Stelvio National Park and Adamello Regional Park🏔👉Fauna, flora and local communities are affected by the shorter period of snow cover, which disturbs the habitats and physiological clocks of species, as well as the availability of water, predation cycles and the cultural landscape. In the afternoon, the visits continued with the FerroMiners (Miniera Ferrominers), who are bridging the diversification of tourism activities in the valley through the revitalisation of historical iron mining sites⛏️A big thanks to our member Università della Montagna for the organisation 👏 ...
