n° 71 | february 2019

The 24th Danilo Re Memorial and the ALPARC General Assembly showed the importance of a shared cooperation for the Alps between the protected areas. In this sense, the “Be Part of the Mountain” initiative strengthens the link between several organizations working for nature conservation on a common topic: wildlife disturbance in winter. All the other projects in which the network is currently involved are also based on the common slogan that marks the ALPARC aims: “Working together for the Alps”. Also in the future the network will continue to work in this direction, improving the exchanges and the cooperation between the Alpine protected areas via specific working topics.

Check out the latest news from the network and the Alps on this newsletter!
