FORort ‐ Forschungsbereich für transdisziplinäre Orts- und Regionalplanung
In Südtirol ist der Platz knapp: Weil die alpine Landschaft die nutzbare Fläche stark einschränkt, ist der Nutzungsdruck auf die verbleibenden Flächen hoch. Der Forschungsbereich für transdisziplinäre Orts- und Regionalplanung (FORort) begegnet diesen Herausforderungen mit Forschung, transdisziplinärer Zusammenarbeit und baukulturellen Leitlinien. Er unterstützt Kommunen bei der nachhaltigen Raumentwicklung und beim Kompetenzaufbau.
Farmer or tourism entrepreneur? An empirical assessment of commercial agritourism in South Tyrol/Italy
In South Tyrol and other European regions, the number of high-quality commercial agritourism businesses is increasing. This development can impact the economic balance between income generated through agricultural and tourism activities. As agritourism is considered to be a supplementary activity to support farming, too much tourism income can be counterproductive to the goals set by legislators and might negatively influence the extent of agricu…
Smart(er) rural areas
This article considers smart rurality within wider European debates and policies addressing innovation in peripheries. It explores the meaning of ‘smart’ through a critical reading of the smart villages concept in official European Union (EU) communications. The content and structure of key EU websites and linked documents are analysed, asking how smart villages are defined and differentiated among the sources. This is followed by a framing of th…
How tourists change farms
Agritourism, a growing trend in rural tourism, offers various agricultural activities designed to draw visitors to farms. However, the impacts that tourists have on agricultural operations and farm families are still largely undocumented. This study focuses on the mountainous Tyrol-South Tyrol-Trentino Euroregion (IT – AT), aiming to explain how agritourism affects farms' adoption of organic production and engagement with local communities as pro…
Differences in sustainability outcomes between agritourism and non-agritourism farms based on robust empirical evidence from the Tyrol/Trentino mountain region
Agritourism is an increasingly popular form of rural tourism that involves agricultural activities and operations aimed at attracting visitors to a farm. We contribute to the literature by examining the sustainability differences between agritourism (ATFs) and non-agritourism farms (non-ATFs) in the Tyrol-South Tyrol-Trentino Euroregion and the impact of agritourism on traditional farming activities. The research questions are answered using coll…
Transforming the Role of Women Farmers and of Refugees
Global trends such as international migration and large-scale agriculture are having an impact on the economy and society of Italy’s mountain territories. Socio-economic challenges call for new solutions that existing public institutions and private local organizations fail to address properly. Social innovation (SI) has become a relevant paradigm to address social challenges. By reconfiguring existing social practices, it introduces new solution…
Trasformare il ruolo delle donne contadine e dei rifugiati
Tendenze globali come la migrazione internazionale e l'agricoltura su larga scala hanno un impatto sulla società e sull'economia dei territori montani italiani. Le sfide socioeconomiche richiedono nuove soluzioni che le esistenti istituzioni pubbliche e organizzazioni private locali non riescono ad affrontare adeguatamente. L'innovazione sociale (di seguito IS) è diventata un paradigma importante per affrontare tali sfide. Riconfigurando le prati…
Social and Labor Integration of Asylum Seekers in Rural Mountain Areas—A Qualitative Study
Migration into Europe affects the Alps in various ways. The recent influx of refugees and a higher number of asylum requests has presented governance challenges for mountain communities. In Italy, the responsibility of regions to host asylum seekers increased when a national system was implemented to distribute asylum seekers throughout the country. This study explored the impact of current distributions through the analysis of 2 rural mountain m…
The Effects of the Planned High-Speed Rail System on Travel Times and Spatial Development in the European Alps
One of the direct effects of introducing high-speed railway lines is a significant reduction in travel times between major cities. This is particularly relevant in mountain areas. It not only makes cities more easily reachable with more sustainable transport systems but can also encourage different travel behavior and reduce environmental pressures on sensitive areas. A comprehensive analysis of the spatiotemporal effects of the introduction of h…
Le système coopératif dans les régions de montagne
Pour la première fois, la Revue de géographie alpine publie un numéro portant sur les systèmes coopératifs, leur rôle, leur pertinence, leurs processus opérationnels et leurs capacités de résilience dans les zones de montagne d’Europe et d’Afrique. Les six articles de ce numéro illustrent les effets et le fonctionnement, actuels et passés, de coopératives rurales et agricoles agissant dans différents secteurs et zones géographiques. Leurs auteurs…

Selected Aspects of Agro-structural Change within the Alps
La région couverte par la Convention alpine a connu un recul important des exploitations agricoles (– 40 %) entre 1980 et 2000. Des régions stables (Autriche, Suisse) côtoient des régions profondément transformées (Italie, Slovénie). Les modifications agrostructurelles ont conduit à des bouleversements majeurs dans les structures de fonctionnement (agrandissement des exploitations, abandon de surface agricole utile, partages diversifiés des types…
