Start in Mountains (SIM) project launches in Brussels! A new Interreg Europe project to boost innovation and entrepreneurship in rural mountain areas.
During a breakfast debate held on May 14, initiated by Marie Antoinette Maupertuis, member of the European Committee of the Regions (CoR), and Herbert Dorfmann, Member of the European Parliament, the European Alliance for Mountain Areas was officially launched.
The European Parliament today adopted its report on the European Water Resilience Strategy recognising the essential role of mountain areas and point out that “mountains are real water towers and important freshwater reservoirs in Europe, the Alps alone providing 40 % of Europe’s fresh water”.
This event is the first of a series of thematic webinars that will take place throughout the life of the MountResilience project and aims to explore how different regions are beginning to work on the transition to alternative tourism models.
We are pleased to announce that we are launching the MountResilience Community of Practice on Climate Change Adaptation and we encourage all mountain stakeholders engaged in climate change adaptation to join the CoP to learn, exchange and boost climate action in the mountains!
Euromontana organises the upcoming RUSTIK conference to look at the role data plays in guiding rural areas toward transition pathways.
On World Water Day and World Glaciers Day, we call more than ever to strengthen Europe's commitment to preserve glaciers, whose melting, especially in the Alps, poses a serious threat to Europe's water supply.
Euromontana recently contributed to the European Commission’s public consultation on the EU Public Procurement Directive to share the voice of mountain communities.
