3- Survey of primary and secondary residences (HES-SO Valais-Wallis)
Your Valpic Committee took part in the genesis of this survey launched by the HES-SO – Institut du Tourisme. Please respond to the questionnaire (link below). The results will be presented at the Valpic Saturday on August 15.
In a mountain society undergoing transformation, and given the diversity of issues linked to the territory, this survey seeks to understand how people living in primary and secondary residences live together.
The questionnaire is aimed at people residing in the Valais, either as main residents – i.e. those who live permanently in the commune and have deposited their papers there – or as secondary residents –i.e. those who come here for leisure or vacations and live elsewhere (in the Valais, in another Swiss canton or abroad).
The questionnaire is anonymous. There are no right or wrong answers. What we are interested in is your opinion and feedback.
Completing this questionnaire will take about 15 minutes.
