On 12th October 2021, Euromontana organised its annual conference on “Being young in a mountain area in 2021”. The event was the opportunity to highlight the needs and desires of young people for the future of the mountains. The conference gave the floor to different mountain organisations that have recently surveyed the needs of young people, as well as to European and Alpine representatives who want to empower young people and better include them in public life. Above all, the conference also featured young people who shared their views and projects for the future of the mountains.
