The document is strongly based on the inputs gained in a series of stakeholder workshops organised in different Alpine countries between September and November 2017 and an online consultation. The programme contains 33 actions in the following categories:

  • Greening finance and the financial support structures
  • Encouraging eco-innovation
  • Greening regional development
  • Valorising ecosystems and biodiversity
  • Living and working in a green economy

The 33 actions serve as a basis for future green economy projects.

In January 2019 the consortium blue!, CIPRA International and Spatial Foresight started a follow-up project entitled "GEAP - Sectoral". The main objective is to foster green economy activities and projects in specific sectors and a number of pilot regions in the Alps. The search for pilot regions is currently ongoing. The project will run until summer 2020.
