<br>The Grassroots Institute (Canada), Valahia University of Targoviste (Romania),

co-organizing “Summer Field School (Hybrid) on Mountain Ecosystems &
Resource Management 2023” (FSc MER 2023) at Carpathian/Bükk Mountains in
Hungary for 30 in-person Delegate Participants and for a thousand of (virtual)

<br>
This same global program, “<strong>Summer Field School on Mountain Ecosystems
& Resource Management</strong>” (FSc MER 2021), was organized successfully
in September 2021 with the partnership and collaboration of 63 universities,
institutes, national parks, and organizations from 21 countries. Nearly 630
people from 69 countries took part in this 9-days event. All details are
available on the weblink <a href="http://www.grassrootsglobal.net/mer2020" target="_blank" style="color:blue">www.grassrootsglobal.net/mer2020</a>.<br>
<br>
This international training program examines the mountain ecosystems in
contexts of human development and natural resources, principles of managing
natural resources, and governing the resources for sustainable conservation.
Depicting on case studies from a wide range of the current natural resources
across the globe, the program considers how different social, political,
economic and cultural and gender aspects compete for and sustain the natural
resources in mountain ecosystems. The program also examines how environmental
activists and their interventions conserved parks, energy, water and land in
the face of climate variability based on a gender perspective. The program will
consider how the current international and development system elaborates and
processes to sustainably manage the available natural resources in mountain
landscapes. <em>The program aims at equipping researchers, students,
practitioners and young teachers seeking to learn about mountain ecosystems and
sustainable development, with practical approaches, knowledge and skills
necessary for meeting the challenges of sustainable use of natural resources
globally. This international training program is executed in partnership with
various academic and practice-oriented organizations.</em><br>
