	The first CLLC intensive programme on the Bison Hillock in May 2019 evolved around the following ideas:		The first CLLC intensive programme on the Bison Hillock in May 2019 evolved around the following ideas:

	*'''The Herd: A Branding and Resource Sharing Community of Entrepreneurs of Common Heritage ''' – ~~The~~ idea is to create a network that will link locals with customers. This network will be a place that joins all the local people who have products or services to offer but are not in a place to start a business themselves. This should give the locals an entry point to the tourism market and at the same time will ~~help~~ tourists ~~in their search~~ for local products and experiences. Through this network, the locals will be visible and much easier to find because we will create visuals that will be put on the doors of people who have something to offer, as well as create maps around the city.		*'''The Herd: A Branding and Resource Sharing Community of Entrepreneurs of Common Heritage ''' – This idea is to create a network that will link locals with customers. This network will be a place that joins all the local people who have products or services to offer but are not in a place to start a business themselves. This should give the locals an entry point to the tourism market and at the same time will provide tourists for local products and experiences they actively seek. Through this network, the locals will be visible and much easier to find because we will create visuals that will be put on the doors of people who have something to offer, as well as create maps around the city.

	*'''Woolies''' – This team was brainstorming the idea of revalidating sheep wool as a local resource. Currently, the local community cannot make use of this material. Therefore, unfortunately, despite its value as a raw product, sheep wool often gets burned. The project intends to promote inter generational learning in the field of wool processing and to reestablish and rebrand local wool products.

	*'''~~Bibi Bison: Videos for Social Impact~~''' – ~~The~~ idea ~~is to publish videos with stories from~~ the local ~~hunters’~~ community, of ~~which Bibi~~ is ~~one well-known individual~~. ~~The activity has two main goals: First~~, ~~to involve the hunters’ community in the change process of the landscape of Armenis~~, ~~in which hunting will supposedly have~~ a ~~different role in the future, and second~~, to promote ~~the community by sharing local stories, customs and atmospheres. This way the hunter community can become an important player~~ in the ~~transformation~~ of ~~Armenis for sustainable tourism~~.		*'''Woolies''' – This team brainstormed the idea of revalidating sheep wool as a local resource.

The project intends to promote inter generational learning in the field of wool processing and to reestablish and re-brand local wool products.

	*'''Bison Hillock Digital''' – The challenge the local community in Armenis is facing is ~~that~~ the lack of access for tourists to get to know about ~~this place~~. Bison Hillock Digital came up with the idea of having an integrated application ~~on the~~ mobile ~~phone~~. The ~~authors~~ would like to redesign the [http://www.bisonhillock.ro existing website] in order to reduce the expense of developing a completely new mobile phone application. The new app will offer services where tourists can book their accommodations and other activities. The application will link the locals, who offer services, to the tourists. This way, we will create new job opportunities for the local community.

The activity has two main goals: First, to involve the hunters’ community in the change process of the landscape of Armenis, in which hunting will hopefully have a different role in the future, and second, to promote the community by sharing local stories, customs and atmospheres. With this, the hunter community can become an important player in the transformation of Armenis for sustainable tourism.
