First of all, a warm welcome to the new members and subscribers that joined ESACH this month. We are excited to see that the interest in our activities keeps growing!
This month, we decided to open the newsletter with a picture of the Vauban’s Fortifications in Briançon, situated at the border between France and Italy. For a long time, these beautiful 17th century fortifications were threatened by climate change and lack of maintainance, until the local community launched an ambitious restoration project. For this reason, the site was enlisted in the 7 most endangered programme launched by Europa Nostra in 2013. If you want to know more about this amazing initiative, check out the dedicated website!
We also have three new additions to our team: Riley will assist the ESACH Talks!, Sorina will be in charge of the Ambassador program (read below!) and Martina will take care of the ESACH Groups.
