Montana174 kicks-off, get involved!

On 6th and 7th October 2021, Euromontana kicked off its new project Montana174 – “How Does the Cohesion Policy shape mountains?”. Funded by the European Commission – DG REGIO, Montana174 is a communication campaign aimed to inform mountain citizens and stakeholders on how the Cohesion Policy supports mountain areas.

From October 2021 until September 2022, Euromontana will coordinate an international Consortium composed of mountain organisations in 5 European regions:

  • City of Grenoble – Europe Direct Centre in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region (France)
  • Ente Regionale per i Servizi all’Agricoltura e alle Foreste in the Lombardy Region ERSAF (Italy)
  • Local Development Agency PINS in Croatia
  • Regional Development Agency Podravje-Maribor in Slovenia
  • Provincial Government of Teruel in Aragon Region (Spain)

 

What will Montana174 deliver in the next months?

In the coming months, the Montana174 partners will collect initiatives and projects financed by the Cohesion Policy in their region and beyond in all Europe. Collected materials will be used to create thematic and regional brochures of good practices, as well as video testimonials, to tell the story of Cohesion Policy in mountains directly from the voice of mountain actors!

 

Stay updated or contribute to the project!

Stay tuned! Montana174 website will be available by early December 2021!

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 👏 ...
