BeyondSnow: Final Results and Tools for Alpine Resilience
Together, Beyond the Project
Over the past three years, the BeyondSnow project has brought together 13 partners and 10 Pilot Working Areas across six Alpine countries to co-create strategies and practical solutions for the future of snow tourism in a changing climate. From vulnerability assessments and innovative digital tools to transition strategies and policy guidelines, we have built a shared knowledge base to help destinations adapt, diversify, and strengthen their resilience.
In this final newsletter, you will find an overview of our key deliverables and outcomes. These resources are designed to inspire and support destination managers, policymakers, businesses and communities in navigating the challenges and opportunities ahead.
The project may be ending, but the journey continues!
Our website remains the hub for all BeyondSnow resources, while our social media channels (Facebook and Instagram) offer a more personal look - from interviews with partners and pilot area stakeholders to stories of good practices and concrete solutions tested on the ground.
Also discover the BeyondSnow Project through its Final Conference Webinar.
Vulnerability Map of Alpine Snow Tourism Destinations
An interactive tool assessing exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity across Alpine regions, combining socio-economic and environmental data.
Why it matters: helps destinations understand where they stand in the face of climate change and identify priority areas for action.
Discover how the map works and use it.
The Climate Resilience Digital Tool
An easy-to-use assessment system that analyses your destination’s resilience, highlights gaps and suggests tailored improvement measures.
Why it matters: provides evidence-based guidance to adapt strategies and stay competitive in a changing climate.
Discover the Climate Resilience Digital Tool and use it.
Resilience Adaptation Model (RAM)
The theoretical, methodological and practical backbone for assessing and strengthening resilience in Alpine snow tourism destinations.
Why it matters: offers a framework that can be adapted to different contexts to guide long-term transition strategies.
