⛰️ Happy International Mountain Day (11th December)! #MountainsMatter
🌁 Earlier this month Christina Barz took part in a panel discussion after the new documentary by Harry Putz about melting glaciers (“Requiem in Weiß”) was shown at Sargfabrik. The movie was followed by a panel discussion; with Christina (on the left) providing valuable insights from the field of #EnvironmentalPsychology. Thank everyone who attended for the great evening and the stimulating discussion.
dÍA INTERNACIonAL DE LAS MONTAÑAS
*Día Internacional de las Montañas (2025)**: El lema de este año es **”Los glaciares son importantes para el agua, la comida y los medios de vida en las montañas y en las regiones río abajo”**. La celebración de 2025 marca una contribución al **Año Internacional de la Conservación de los Glaciares** y busca concienciar sobre su importancia como fuentes de agua dulce y su alarmante retroceso por el cambio climático.
**Datos clave para compartir**:
* Los glaciares y las capas de hielo contienen alrededor del **70%** del agua dulce del mundo.
* Casi **2.000 millones de personas**, incluidos muchos pueblos indígenas, dependen del agua de las montañas.
* Su desaparición supone una **pérdida de identidad** para muchas comunidades y aumenta el riesgo de catástrofes naturales aguas abajo.
* **Llamada a la acción**: Se puede destacar cómo participar (usar el hashtag **#MountainsMatter**, organizar actividades, etc.).
⛰️ Happy International Mountain Day (11 December)!
#MountainsMatter – they are the world’s water towers and global action is needed to preserve #glaciers and #mountains for future generations.
📸 The EnvPsy RESONATE Team recently visited the Gastein Healing Gallery, which is built into an old geothermal ore mining tunnel. The occasion: The RESONATE Spotlight Series, a symposium bringing together Nature-Therapy experts and enthusiasts from across the DACH-Region.

This fact sheet is published by the Mountain Partnership Secretariat of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. It outlines the critical importance of mountains for people and the planet, highlighting that mountains are home to around 1.1 billion people. Covering about 27 percent of the earth’s land surface, mountains host 25 of the world’s 34 biodiversity hotspots and supply freshwater to an estimated half of humanity. However, mountains face significant threats and challenges. Biodiversity loss, land degradation and pollution severely impact mountain livelihoods and ecosystems. Climate change exacerbates these issues, causing glacier retreat, permafrost thaw and climate-related hazards, which affect water supply in lowland areas. Additionally, one in two rural mountain people in developing countries is vulnerable to food insecurity. The Mountain Partnership is leading global efforts to support the livelihoods of mountain communities and protect their environments. Nature-based solutions and ecosystem-based adaptation can help mountain communities build resilience, diversify their livelihoods, and reduce dependencies on unsustainable practices. Investments, training, innovation and digitalization can empower mountain communities, who are the custodians and stewards of these precious resources. Founded in 2002, the Mountain Partnership is the only United Nations’ voluntary alliance of members dedicated to mountain peoples and environments. It brings together diverse stakeholder groups, empowering communities and increasing commitment and investment to address the planetary crises affecting mountains, ensuring the social and economic well-being of mountain people, leaving no one behind.
