For six months, the Communauté de Communes du Pays des Écrins has been engaged in pastoral mediation, aiming to harmoniously reconcile tourist activity and pastoralism. This summer, field actions yielded significant results, with over 1,800 people educated, a record compared to previous seasons.
The arrival of Eva in July and August, to assist Pauline, enabled daily patrols during the peak of the summer season. This support also allowed for the continuation of planned activities and training sessions.
In parallel with this high-altitude mediation and complementing the location maps available in the field and digitally (on the Communauté de Communes website, GEOMAS), a new initiative was launched at the end of the season: the mapping of intermediate zones in a pilot commune, Champcella.
This map, the result of precise work between the Communauté de Communes du Pays des Écrins and breeders, aims to finely map pasture areas within villages, occupied during the shoulder seasons (autumn and spring). This cartographic effort will enable breeders to communicate with the town hall each week, indicating the sector they will occupy. An assessment of this experiment will be made at the end of autumn.
