Mountain walk in Croatia: discover how Cohesion Policy supports Kristina

In Croatia, adult citizens can benefit from numerous opportunities thanks to the European Cohesion Policy to simplify their work, improve their daily lives and take care of their family. Kristina is an imaginary character created by Montana174 project, whose intention is to showcase real projects financed by the 2014-2020 Cohesion Policy for local citizens in mountain areas.

Discover with her from what initiatives local citizens can benefit in her mountain area:

1. Modernisation of local enterprises

 Wood processing company RAVNA received funding to buy new machines and expand its business. As for the RAVNA company, the Cohesion Policy offers support to local companies to strengthen their business and support digitalization, with consequent benefits on the quality of work of its employees and the boost of the local economy.

2. “ Wish – Women s Employment Programme” sustains elderly care

The programme was launched by the Ministry of Labour and Pension System, Family and Social Policy in order to improve women’s position in the labour market. In particular, this programme facilitates disadvantaged women to find jobs in the care sector for the elderly and disadvantaged people, including in rural areas and islands, where the unemployment and long-term unemployment rates are higher than the Croatian average. Approximately 3045 women are planned to be employed throughout Croatia to work in support and care for  people in need in their communities.

3. Delnice Recycling Yard

A recycling centre was built close to Delnice in order to strengthen the capacity for waste management in the region. Moreover, a secondary objective is to educate the public about proper waste management, including waste avoidance, waste preparation for reuse to recycling and recovery.

 

Have a look at how Kristina experienced Cohesion Policy in her mountain walk (available in English and Croatian).

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 👏 ...
