INTRODUCTION ITALIANO - Come cambiano le Alpi? Verso quali direzioni si muovono e con chi sono connesse? Che cosa accade e si percepisce nei territori Alpini prima che in altri territori? Il Convegno 2014 di Rete Montagna Le Alpi in movimento si pone l obiettivo di essere nel contempo una piattaforma di scambio dei risultati di ricerca e di esperienze e un occasione per discutere sulle prospettive dello sviluppo futuro del territorio alpino. Come tale vuole mettere a fuoco e ripensare la posizione e il ruolo strategico della catena alpina intesa come campo della ricerca e sperimentazione continua di pratiche, modelli e stili di vita sostenibili. La chiave di lettura sarà il movimento - l azione del muovere o del muoversi - inteso sia come cambiamento nel tempo, sia come spostamento di persone, elementi naturali, risorse, idee, sia come direzione verso cui procedere. I partecipanti si confronteranno su tre macro temi - Alpine Economies, Ecosystem Services & Adaptation e Cultural Resources and Lifestyle Changes - e su due temi trasversali: le relazioni fra le Alpi e i territori circostanti e le attuali dinamiche urbano- rurali che interessano l arco alpino. ENGLISH - How do the Alps change? Which direction do they move in and with whom are they connected to? What happens and is perceived in the Alpine territories before in other areas? The 2014 Alpine Network Conference "The Alps in movement" aims to be both a platform for the exchange of research results and experiences and an opportunity to discuss the prospects of future Alpine region development. As such, we want to focus on and reevaluate the position and strategic role of the Alps as a field for research and experimentation, which tests practices, patterns and sustainable lifestyles. The key will be movement as change over time, as a movement of people, natural features, resources, ideas and a direction in which to proceed. The participants will discuss three main themes, Alpine Economies, "Ecosystem Services & Adaptation" and "Cultural Resources and Lifestyle Changes". Additionally, intersecting themes to be examined are the relationships between the Alps and their neighbors and the current urban- rural dynamics affecting the Alps. DEUTSCH - Wie verändern sich die Alpen? In welche Richtung bewegen sie sich und in welchen Zusammenhängen? Was passiert in den Alpen bevor es anderswo geschieht? Die Tagung der Rete Montagna 2014 Die Alpen in Bewegung will als Plattform für den Austausch von Forschungsergebnissen und Erfahrungen dienen, um die zukünftige Entwicklung des Alpenraums zu erörtern. Ins Zentrum der Überlegungen möchte sie die strategische Position des Alpenbogens als Experimentierfeld für nachhaltige Lebensformen stellen. Als Schlüssel zum Verständnis dient die Bewegung, sei es des Bewegens oder des Bewegtwerdens, sowohl in zeitlicher als räumlicher Dimension. Die Teilnehmer/innen werden sich mit drei großen Themen befassen; Alpine Wirtschaft ; Ecosystem Services & Adaptation und Kulturelle Ressourcen und Lifestyle- Änderungen sowie mit der Beziehung zwischen den Bergen und den umliegenden Regionen, aber auch mit der aktuellen Dynamik zwischen Stadt und Umland. SLOVENŠČINA - Kako se Alpe spreminjajo? V katere smeri se gibljejo in s čim so povezane? Kaj se zgodi in zazna v Alpah prej kot na drugih območjih? Konferenca združenja Omrežje gorah Alpe v gibanju v letu 2014 stremi k temu, da postane platforma za izmenjavo rezultatov raziskav in izkušenj ter predstavlja priložnost za razpravo o možnostih prihodnjega razvoja alpskega prostora. Zato se želi posvetiti temi in razmisleku o položaju in strateški vlogi Alp kot območju raziskovanja in eksperimentiranja, ki testira prakse, vzorce in trajnosti način življenja. Ključ bo v gibanju, kot spremembi skozi čas, premikom ljudi, naravnih danosti, virov, idej in smeri za prihodnost. Sodelujoči bodo razpravljali o treh glavnih temah Alpskem gospodarstvu, Eko- sistemskih storitvah in prilagoditvah ter Kulturnih danostih in spremembah v življenjskem stilu poleg tega sta presečni temi, ki bi ju veljalo proučiti še, odnosi med Alpami in njihovo okolico ter trenutne urbano- ruralne dinamike, ki vplivajo na Alpe. FRANÇAIS - Comment les Alpes sont- elles en train de changer? Dans quelles directions sont- elles en mouvement et avec qui sont- elles liées? Que se passe t'il et est perçu dans les territoires alpins avant d'être perçu dans d'autres territoires? L'édition 2014 de la conférence «Les Alpes en mouvement» de l association «Réseau Montagne» a pour objectif d'être à la fois une plate- forme pour l'échange des résultats des recherches et expériences réalisées et un forum de discussion des perspectives de développement futur de la région alpine. Dans cette optique, nous souhaitons reconsidérer la position et le rôle stratégique des Alpes en tant que domaine de recherche et d'expérimentation continue des pratiques, des modèles et styles de vie durables. Le sujet clé sera le mouvement - l'action de déplacer ou de se déplacer aussi bien en tant que changement au fil du temps, que flux de personnes, d éléments naturels, de ressources et d'idées, et que direction vers laquelle procéder. Les participants traiteront trois thèmes principaux - Alpine Economies, Ecosystem Services & Adaptation e Cultural Resources and Lifestyle Changes - ainsi que deux thèmes transversaux - la relation entre les Alpes et territoires environnants et les dynamiques urbaine- rurales affectant les Alpes. 2/5

GENERAL GUIDELINES Authors are invited to submit original papers that are not being considered for publication in any other forum. Manuscripts should be submitted in WORD format and formatted using the templates available below. By submitting an abstract, the paper and/or a poster, you are granting the Rete Montagna permission to publish it in the conference proceedings and to disseminate it also electronically. Presentations will be audio and video recorded and made available to conference attendees after the conference. All contributed papers (oral presentations) will be scheduled for 20 minutes, which includes 15 minutes for the presentation and five minutes for questions. We urge participants to consider presenting their work as posters; it s a great opportunity to obtain interesting and valuable feedback on ongoing research from a knowledgeable crowd at the conference. We are looking for submissions of research posters, describing ongoing research, exciting new research projects, and encouraging preliminary results. Priority will be given to poster proposals which clearly communicate innovative research to the whole conference audience, with a focus on impact and applications of the work. Accepted posters will be displayed for the entire conference on poster boards. Presenters will be assigned to one of four sessions and are required to be present at the specific time in order to take part in the discussion and exchange views with other colleagues. Posters should be formatted using the templates available below. You should prepare the best material (visually appealing and succinct) that effectively communicates your research problem, techniques, results, and what is novel and important about your work. All posters papers must be in English and all figures, photographs, and diagrams to be used for poster presentation must be clearly discernible and tidy. The presented posters will be digitally archived and made publicly available after the conference. An award will be given to the three best posters judged during the conference by attendees and by the Scientific Committee of the Congress. The evaluation will be based on quality of research work and quality of poster presentation (concept of poster, the general idea, the technical details offered and insights to be learned, organization of poster, clearly conveying a snapshot of your work intended to engage colleagues and research findings and results of the work). It s a wonderful opportunity for young scientists (under the age of 35) to be recognized and honoured for their outstanding research about the Alps. The Best Posters will be recognized during the Conclusion (Friday, November 7, 18.00-19.00).
