Europe’s mountain communities are suffering from dramatic depopulation. “NZZ Format” has accompanied three villages over the years and shows that even the most remote Alpine communities have a chance of a lively future.

In the French Puy-Saint-André, the community is fighting against the rapidly progressing climate change. With the melting snow, jobs in tourism also disappeared. Mayor Pierre LeRoy is trying to build a new, sustainable economy in his alpine village so that the residents can have a long-term future in the village.
