In the framework of the EXPO 2015, the UNESCO Chair in ICT to develop and promote sustainable tourism in World Heritage Sites and the University of Milano – Bicocca are organizing a summer school entitled ICTs to promote Sustainable Tourism (Tangible and Intangible Heritage between Cultural, Leisure, and Gastronomic Tourism).

The Summer School links three relevant elements connected to EXPO2015 – Italian land, the development of the related resources in a responsible way, and ICT. Indeed, ICT are seen as a condition of global development, for its ability to go through space and time, and to improve reputation and image while increasing awareness of a place.

The Summer School is committed to discovering the natural and cultural places we live in. It intends to offer an overview of good practices in the Lombardy region (Italy) and in the Ticino region (Switzerland), with a particular focus on sustainable tourism and UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

A combination of lectures, cases, site visits (including EXPO2015), workshops and group-works will be provided, to ensure high engagement and retention by all participants.

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 👏 ...
