Viața Munților – Informative newspaper of the Mountain Economy Center CE-MONT
The newspaper “Viata Munților” published by the Mountain Economy Center, CE-MONT, of the National Institute of Economic Research “Costin C. Kirițescu”/Romanian Academy, aims to continue CE-MONT’s efforts to increase the level of knowledge of Romanian, European and worldwide mountain realities, to become a useful tool for preventing the accentuation of some phenomena laden with risks, to inform the scientific and institutional entities interested in mountains and mountain communities, on the existing and perspective realities and opportunities, regarding new ideas resulting from research activity and/or from the “rediscovery” of “good practices”, with perennial value.
Also, the newspaper will contribute to the promotion of high-quality agro-food “mountain products” and other renewable resources from mountain areas and at the same time to the formation of a mountain culture in Romanian society, in accordance with the new guidelines generated by the “European Green Pact ” – Horizon 2050.
The urgent need to mitigate/combat the pandemic with COVID-19 and others that may arise bring the mountains, for the first time, into special attention at the European, planetary and national level due to everything they have: unpolluted air, clean waters, a specific territorial spread of mountain households, other renewable resources and especially human food through the agri-food “mountain products”, which have become “food-medicine”.
