Bolognola and its trails were “a discovery” (for us) on April 21, 2018. We went up to Pintura, and the first things that struck us were the view of the sea, and the numerous trails that radiate out to cross the Sibillini Mountains. A beautiful area that was already in the reconstruction phase after the earthquake. The Municipality was thinking about how to relaunch the area, starting precisely from its characteristics. The second thing that struck us is a signal, located in the village square, which shows all the “Mountain Bike Excursions”. When we asked if we could have the itineraries in a Digital Map, accessible by mobile, we were told that yes, all the paths could be downloaded “in PDF format”. Why a digital map? From there, a collaboration process began with the Municipality of Bolognola, with the aim of being able to transfer information into a real...

Tea at 5 in the Sibillini Mountains – ASviS 2022 Festival, workshop on sustainable tourism Our Tea finally moves in person in Bolognola, a small hamlet in the province of Macerata. As you know, or maybe you will find it out now, we have several activities in progress in this Municipality. This workshop, which has been included in the ASviS 2022 Festival, coordinates with the activities of one other project of ours: Alta Formazione 1070. #AF1070 connects its training to the sustainable development of mountain areas and communities. Indeed, we are very keen on the development of truly sustainable and, if possible, inclusive tourism, especially for mountain areas. So, here we are! Bolognola has a very particular history. We met at the time of the earthquake in Central Italy (2016). Since then, this small town has had to – and has been able to – face enormous problems...

The increased awareness of sustainability issues is a fact of 2021. There is still a lot to do – just look at how Cop26 ended – but at least the three pillars have become well known. In fact, it should be remembered, that sustainability is not only environmental but also social and economic. In 2021 we have developed several activities; we have worked on all three aspects and the numbers we have reached comfort us a lot. And now some numbers on our latest activities The results of the latest online and face-to-face activities that we have included in the Sustainable Development Festival make us understand that, although there is still a lot to do, the road is long but is the right one. These numbers, which refer to the month of October 2021, are a new starting point for us People reached online on the various channels: 20,493 Interactions: 1225 Video views – YouTube...

In March, “Tea at five” starts again with a specific subtitle: ethics and arithmetic. The edition is completely renewed and marks a change of pace compared to the previous series. We will focus again on recycling as a value for sustainability, a cornerstone of Progetto  Re-Cycle With the unexpected outbreak of the pandemic, we concentrated our efforts on the impact of the crisis on production activities and on aspects of sustainable reorganization. The latter representing the necessary counterbalance to the pandemic itself. Nothing will go back to the way it was before, and we have to take for certain the need for a change. Recent events have violently demonstrated that the relationship between man and nature is unbalanced. We need to rethink this relationship from a more sustainable and respectful perspective. Starting from the economy and production processes, from the use of...

After our on line streaming  event “Tea at Five”  we are going to begin our “courses for sustainability”  to go deeper in this broad – too much broad indeed – subject. Starting from November 17, every Tuesday and Thursday at 18.00, we will deal with sustainability in  a series of online courses focused on the goals discussed during the live streaming. We will therefore focus on goal 12 – sustainable production – goal 8 – digital transformation, territory and sustainable tourism – It is really important for us to continue on the path taken, to deepen our knowledge and to provide everybody with the tools to act on sustainability. Our courses are aimed primarily at businesses, professionals and students. University professors and professionals will held the lessons via Google meet and they recommend an interactive participation. Our courses for...

From October 2020 tomorrow’s tourism and sustainable tourism are becoming an increasingly important topic for Progetto Re-Cycle. We have been working for some time on digital transformation projects for the territories. Our #disentieroinsentiero project, on accessible places, is gaining more and more visibility while unexpected new implications are emerging. Respire – France And now what’s new? Something really cool: we have joined an association that  is focused on tourism and above all tourism of tomorrow, after what we are learning from pandemic. This association gives its activities an international “breath”. Its name is “Respire, le Tourisme de Demain”.  It is based in France but is developing fast in other parts of the world, especially the USA and Japan. We firmly believe in the interaction and integration of different areas. That is...
