Banner Mountain WeekThe Mountain Week is organised from the 4th to 11th June 2015. This Mountain week is being organised by the governments of mountainous countries, the secretariats of the Alpine Convention and Carpathian Convention and other organisations that belong to the Mountain Partnership. This Mountain week aims to promote sustainable mountain development and the products yielded in mountainous areas. The main topics that will be discussed in this event are: food and water supplies, the possibility of increasing food safety and future and sustainability always with a mountain approach.

Euromontana is involved in the organisation of two main events:

This high level opening conference will analyse the outcomes achieved so far in linking environmental with economic progress in mountain regions in the field of farming and food productions, to examine their economic potential and explore the unexploited potential of international cooperation for mountain territories in support to initiatives for food sustainability, transformation, certification and regional and global trade. Existing experiences and tools will be presented and a sound debate will be stimulated about innovative tools and adequate frameworks to promote a sustainable and effective commerce of mountain products.

Please find here the agenda of the event.

The final event of the Mountain Week will deal with green marketing for mountain food products. Having regard for the growing attention by consumers for green products in the food sector, the meeting will allow to meet and support network creation among businesses in the agri-food sector operating in the mountains, especially in Italy, as a means to promote global market-orientated strategies.

Please find here the agenda of the event.

 Don’t hesitate and join us to these two major events on mountain food products and register by following the procedure here. For more information on the other events of the Mountain Week, please visit the Mountain Week webpage

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 👏 ...
