V IBERIAN CONGRESS ON DEHESAS AND EL MONTADO

Resilience and profitability: business models in a context of uncertainty

We are pleased to announce that the V Iberian Congress of Dehesa and Montado will be held in Évora on 29 and 30 October 2024.


This is the fifth edition of a forum that will bring together managers, owners, public administration, academia and other entities linked to the Dehesa-Montado ecosystem.


The aim of this new edition is to reflect on business models and solutions that can open up new paths for these unique systems threatened by climate change and low profitability. Based on this common thread, the Congress will analyse management strategies for the Dehesa-Montado in a context of climate change, as well as the challenges and opportunities derived from ecosystem services and biodiversity.


The Congress will include oral presentations and round tables focused on three thematic blocks: “Management strategies for the Dehesa-Montado in a context of climate change”, “Biodiversity and ecosystem services as challenges and opportunities for profitability” and “Business models for a production system at risk”. With the aim of stimulating and promoting the exchange of information between the different participants, the congress will also have an exhibition area for scientific posters, an area for disseminating innovative projects related to the Dehesa-Montado and an area for demonstrating examples of business models associated with these systems. Finally, the programme includes a guided field trip to a Dehesa-Montado farm, with a debate on its management model.


This meeting is organised by the University of Évora – MED, Innogestiona Ambiental, CICYTEX, Junta de Extremadura, Montado Living Lab and the cross-border cooperation project SOS_PRODEHESAMONTADO, with the support of the University of Extremadura, ACTYVA, FEDEHESA, CEBAL and ACOS.

DEHESA/MONTADO

Resilience and profitability

The dehesa-montado, which occupies 30% of the surface area of Extremadura and the Alentejo, is a crucial habitat and production system. This environment not only generates employment in rural areas and helps to fix the population, but also provides various ecosystem services and is home to a rich biodiversity.
