The University of Innsbruck hosts an interactive AlpES workshop on 28th September 2018 about the integration of the ES concept in international decision-making. The goal of the event is to discuss and elaborate links for ES management in transboundary (environmental) conflicts.
Target participants are organisations and businesses such as national parks, research institutes, NGO’s, national (environmental) authorities and administrations, SME’s and national tourist agencies from the DACH region (the event will be held in German).
For further information see the event programme and project description below or get in touch with the University of Innsbruck: the registration is now open and reservations are welcomed by Hieronymus Jäger ([email protected]).

AlpES – mapping, maintenance and management
The Alpine Space (AS) is an important provider of ES. These ES are one of the main pillars of a Green Economy in the Alps, a key driver of Alpine development and the focus of the next State of the Alps report. The population and different economic sectors such as tourism, forestry, agriculture, energy and transport in- and outside the AS derive benefits from ES. However, sectoral conflicts are becoming increasingly complex. AlpES builds on and provides testing and implementation opportunities for the ES concept, which is already established at EU level and can help in resolving conflicts among different interests, particularly in transnational contexts. AlpES lasts from December 2015 to December 2018 and is co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund through the Interreg Alpine Space programme.
