Courses

The IPROMO summer school will focus on several aspects that contribute to the fruitful management of mountain areas in the framework of bioeconomy, ranging from environmental conservation and water supply, to income generation and food security. Particular emphasis will be placed on the importance of a participatory approach whereby local communities and authorities closely cooperate. A field trip to Aosta Valley (in cooperation with the Institut Agricole Régional) will allow participants to discover different examples of mountain resources management. The interrelations between climate change and other global challenges and mountain areas will be discussed during the course and working groups will be formed, allowing participants to share their knowledge and build a network of experts.
