Through visible traces left on the landscapes of the karstic poljés of the Dinaric Alps, the exhibition captures the changing relationship between human activity and the environment.

Symposium | Pastoralism, a story of the future, Paris 2023

On March 2, 2023, the French Association of Pastoralism (AFP) organized in Paris in the premises of the National Assembly the symposium “Pastoralism, a story of the future” on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the implementing decrees of the Pastoral Law in France.

More about the symposium (in French sorry!)

Agenda of the symposium (in french)

Alice Garnier presented the recent work of the AIDA association on pastoral and land issues in Albania. The return to three pastoral areas (the Has, Rrungaja and Dukat massifs) made it possible to underline that under the apparent unity of the pastoral systems hides a great diversity of situations and dynamics, and varied land issues. It is also an opportunity to present courses of action resulting from European reflections and which could/should be discussed in Albania and throughout the Balkans.
