SILVER SMEs organises its second international conference on the Silver Economy!

SILVER SMEs invites you to its second international conference “Business Opportunities linked to Fragile & Vulnerable Ageing Population“, taking place in Zielona Gora, Poland, on October 24 2019!

SILVER SMEs is an Interreg Europe project aiming at supporting regional policies in rural and mountainous areas by enlightening the potential for SMEs to develop new innovative products and services of benefit and joy for a senior population. By supporting the development of new SMEs in the Silver Economy, an intrinsic objective is to stimulate growth and competitiveness of rural areas and mountainous areas.

The conference will gather policymakers and entrepreneurs from the Silver Economy sector and will be an opportunity to understand policy opportunities to support Silver Economy initiatives impacting Fragile-Vulnerable Ageing Population in the Lubuskie Region, Poland. Partners of the SILVER SMEs project will also introduce good practices from their respective regions and present additional examples to provide goods and services adapted to the needs of fragile older adults.

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 👏 ...
