Terres Monviso, a forward-looking cooperation
March 2023
On March 9th, the MOT took part in the final seminar of the Integrated Territorial Plan (PITer) "Terres Monviso", which was held in Guillestre (Hautes-Alpes), near the French-Italian border.
With Dominique Moulin, president of the Community of Municipalities of Guillestrois-Queyras - which has just joined the MOT network - and Mauro Calderoni, mayor of Saluzzo (IT), this meeting brought together the entire partnership to conclude an ambitious project.
Over the past four years, the PITER "Terres Monviso" has set itself the objective of developing this Franco-Italian territory "without borders". With a funding of 7.83 M€, within the framework of the Interreg ALCOTRA program, the Terres Monviso have demonstrated their ability to work together to be stronger and better connected. The members intend to continue to actively contribute to the construction of Europe in this cross-border territory.
To this end, they signed a "Terres Monviso" Manifesto on February 2nd, 2023 at the Refuge de la Paix at the Larche Pass, committing them in the long term to further structuring cross-border governance.
On the occasion of this closing seminar, it was time to take stock but also to look ahead to the next call for projects of the 2021-2027 program to which the Terres Monviso partners intend to respond. The local elected officials have unanimously expressed "the need to continue the momentum and be closer to the concerns of the population" to build this joint application.
