A weekend with a view

Look closely at what is happening.

Program

For three days, journalists will meet other knowledgeable mediators of information from different regions of the world in Innsbruck. In conversations with colleagues and other experts, visitors find out what is going on behind the scenes of the information on international events, which is often hastily and superficially conveyed, and can contribute.

Current social, political and cultural developments are the focus of the debates, from book presentations, exhibitions, doc-films and audio features. The Journalismusfest Innsbruck opens a window to the complex present in which we live.

Adapting to Climate Change in the Alps:

Due to their intensive commercial exploitation, the Alps, one of the largest continuous natural areas in Europe, are experiencing the significant consequences of climate change. For over 25 years, the Alpine Convention has provided a binding framework agreement between all eight Alpine states for  sustainable development. For instance, the Mountaineering Villages Initiative shows how to combine sustainable tourism, local value creation and quality of life in 17 regions. At the same time, there are pan-Alpine projects to collect data on the socio-ecological impact of climate change on winter tourism and to develop new perspectives.
