Shetland Islands Council, United-Kingdom

Shetland Islands Council is the most northerly and second smallest local authority area in Scotland, UK. The Council is a major employer in the islands with 3251 employees. The Council consists of 22 elected members serving a population of 22,000 people.

 Shetland Islands Council will host the second meeting of the partners in August 2012. Within the project the Council will contribute by researching the local area in order to baseline the current situation and allow comparisons to be drawn with other partner regions. Following this the Council will be an integral partner in working to improve local policies relating to sustainable travel, which it is hoped will improve the sustainability of mobility on the islands.

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 👏 ...
