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 webinar will provide evidence-based perspectives on the challenges and opportunities in rural areas, more specifically on the cycle of decline.
