Working themes

Territorial development
We work on different key policies that contribute to the quality of life of local communities and the attractiveness of mountain areas.

Environment
The mountain environment is rich and unique. We work to preserve and restore it, increase the environmental resilience of mountain areas and help territories drive transitions.

Agriculture
Mountain landscapes are shaped by traditional, extensive and sustainable agriculture. We aim to promote mountain farming and improve the conditions of mountain farmers.

Cross-cutting
Mountain areas are veritable laboratories for finding new solutions to overarching challenges. We promote research and innovation in, with and for mountain communities.
Upcoming events
The XIV European Mountain Convention will bring together mountain stakeholders from all over Europe to shape the future of extensive livestock farming in mountain territories.
