Euromontana, together with Eureka 21 and ADTconsult, has carried out for the French National Agency for Territorial Cohesion (Agence Nationale de la Cohésion des Territoires) the study “Climate change in mountain areas: meeting the challenge of adapting water management and tourism.
This study focuses on the challenges of adaptation in water and tourism management in mountain areas. It analyses the policies and practices implemented in 5 European mountain countries
Nearly 900,000 hectares of land burnt in 2022, according to the recent Joint Research Centre report on Forest Fires in Europe, Middle East and North Africa 2022, a significant increase compared to 2021.
MountResilience aims to support mountain regions and communities in their transition towards a climate-resilient society.
FIRE-RES aims to increase the resilience of European landscapes in the face of extreme wildfire events, which have increased in frequency and intensity in a context of climate change.
Polish State Forests have been active in adapting to climate change by maintaining and strengthening the water storage capacity of mountain forests using Cohesion Policy funds.
The X European Mountain Convention will examine the vulnerability of mountain areas to climate change and the adaptation and mitigation measures available to support mountain areas.
Europe needs a change of paradigm to better deal with wildfires. Euromontana organised a policy debate at the European Parliament on 24 October as part of the FIRE-RES research project.
MountResilience kicked-off in Ponte di Legno (Italy) on the 19th – 20th and 21st September 2023. MountResilience (Accelerating transformative climate adaptation for higher resilience in European mountain regions) targets mountain territories and their communities to help them adapt to climate change.
