After the positive experiences of the 2004 Alpine Week in Kranjska Gora/SI the major Alpine networks ISCAR, CIPRA, Alliance in the Alps, ALPARC and Club Arc Alpin decided to repeat the event in 2008. The aim is to promote dialogue between the different groups of players involved in sustainable development. Proposals are also to be drawn up on ways in which public administrations and the Alpine Convention in particular can orientate their activities and their measures towards sustainable innovation.
In five main topic strands, the lectures and presentations are to address the issue of "Innovating [in] the Alps". The main subject always revolves around questions of innovation, coupled with the challenges of sustainable development in the Alps.
We want to seize this opportunity to celebrate the completion of the Future in the Alps Project. So on Wednesday evening, 11 June 2008, there will be plenty of discussions, food and dancing. And everyone who took part in the Project is warmly invited to attend!
