Youth and mountains: a peak of attractiveness?

*"I would like to live in a clean mountain, but above all a repopulated one”* says a young farmer from Piedmont region, Italy, in [Euromontana](https://www.euromontana.org/)'s new report [Being young in a mountain area: Mountain youth’s needs in 2022 and aspirations for the future](https://www.euromontana.org/en/being-young-in-a-mountain-area-euromontanas-report-is-out/). But do young people want to live or settle in the mountains? How can policies make mountain areas attractive? As the European Year of Youth starts, Euromontana, the European Association of Mountain areas, provides an insight of young people's appetite for life in the mountains and draws some lessons for the future of these territories.
