📖 Last week, our Robin Oddon from TECHTERA participated to the panel: Local Resources, Drivers of the Future: What Interregional Opportunities for a Sustainable Regional Economy?
Held at the Hôtel de Région in Lyon organized by Region Aura, the seminar was a great opportunity to showcase how local resources, innovation, and collaboration can support sustainable regional economies across the Alpine space.
As a panelist in the session “Local Resources, Drivers of the Future: What Interregional Opportunities for a Sustainable Regional Economy?”, Robin emphasized the capacity of AlpTextyles to address resource management and create added value in the Alps by drawing on local specificities such as resources, know-how, culture, and heritage.
The discussion also highlighted our pilot action on natural dyes and the importance of Interreg programs in engaging public authorities in collaborative partnerships that link micro and macro perspectives — with wool valorization as a concrete example.
In the interactive workshops, we focused on generating ideas to strengthen the Interreg framework, from involving newcomers in the programme to enhancing the dissemination, transfer, and impact of project results — which reconnected to AlpTextyles’ achievements including:
🌿 Natural dyes from Alpine plant extracts
📘 Orientation guide for SMEs and Toolkits for safeguarding Alpine textile heritage
🎓 MOOC on the living textile heritage of the Alps
📝 Policy brief for evolving public policies
🤝 Community events for co-creation and knowledge transfer
Speaking of results, the AlpTextyles Final Event is only a few weeks away! We are looking forward to welcoming you to this celebratory day of inspiring roundtables, networking, and exhibitions.
📍October 21 | Hôtel de Région, Lyon
