What becomes possible when people meet in the remoteness of the Swiss mountains who rarely meet in their home countries? What skills and insights do they gain?

​In times of crisis, the book brings the focus back to hope - especially hope in young people - and shows ways in which encounters between cultures are still possible.

In the book, it is primarily the young adults themselves who have their say. They reveal their experiences and talk about how working with the stones affects them. The dry stone walls that were built remain as a strong testament to their collaboration over centuries.
