Revitalising valleys, identifying with landscapes, climbing more sustainably, using old irrigation systems innovatively, eating radically and locally: 18 participants honed such project ideas at the second Alpine Changemaker Basecamp (ACB), held in Silandro/I at the beginning of July 2023.

The second ACB at the BASIS Vinschgau Venosta in Schlanders-Silandro/I offered highly motivated people from all over the Alpine region the opportunity to develop projects for a just, liveable and sustainable future in the Alps, guided by eleven mentors and covering a wide range of topics and methods.

Apart from mentoring sessions and other inputs the Basecamp also offered an excursion to Glurns, where they got to know the Upper Vinschgau citizens cooperative.

The Alpine Changemaker Basecamp is sponsored by the Mercator Switzerland Foundation.
