The DEMOCHANGE project will be led by Munich University of Applied Sciences, Faculty of Tourism. In addition, each participating model region will be linked to at least one partner from an institution of Applied Sciences for support and guidance at the implementation level. These partners listed below will together deliver a solid basic analysis of the current and future impacts of demographic change in the model regions. Furthermore, steering groups in each model region will define concrete adaptation strategies and generalize these strategies for the transnational exchange network. The merged results will ultimately be used to give recommendations to other Alpine regions in support of their efforts to adapt to demographic change.
