Collective Spirit
At the core of our network is a commitment to mutual support and collective action. Rooted in the values of solidarity, equality, and social contribution, we aim to promote a sustainable way of life in the mountains, closer to nature and based on cooperation. Our network connects individuals and communities who share the vision of revitalizing mountain areas, empowering them to thrive together. Through collective effort, we can overcome challenges and build a future where everyone has equal opportunities to prosper.
