  • Future climate scenarios
  • Climate change impacts, vulnerabilities, risks
  • Adaptation policies (strategies, action plans, legislation, policy studies)
  • Adaptation options (measures, recommended actions)
  • Tools (manuals, guidance, methods, work aids)
  • Adaptation in practice (implemented measures, case studies)
  • Monitoring & evaluation

  Concept Paper of the Roadshow

  Type of output:Strategy

  Objective: Roadshow Concept

  The document outlines the Roadshow, whose idea is to make the EUSALP more tangible for citizens. With Roadshows covering all Alpine countries, local and regional stakeholders as well as the civil society can be addressed in a vivid, direct and easy-going way. Thanks to a modular layout, each Roadshow can spread the EUSALP vision (the MRS creates sustainable solutions for the benefits of the citizens and brings governments closer to the people) as well as site-specific initiatives, able to involve and attract citizens and young people. The Roadshow has been coordinated by the Permanent Secretariat of the Alpine Convention, in close collaboration with the various AGs and the EUSALP/AlpGov2 communication team.

  Recommendations for strengthening local wood supply chains

  Type of output:Strategy

  Objective: Developing policy recommendation

  The Recommendations for strengthening local wood supply chains outlines a set of recommendations for strengthening local wood supply chains, based on a governance analysis, a literature review, and the opinion of key stakeholders. The governance analysis drafts the characteristics of the Alpine forests and the prevailing form of ownership, identifies several practices in the aggregation of forest ownership and timber supply chains as well as other typologies of aggregation of forest producers, also in relation to the perspective of the new EU Forest Strategy 2030. The interpretation of the socio-economic indicators (enterprise density and employment density in the wood industry), the interviews with some actors and the analysis of the scientific literature provides strategic indications categorized according to the following six dimensions: public policies, structure of the supply chain, issue of data, structures of companies and land ownership, main actors and the role of communication.
