Climate Change in the Alps
Concept Map
Discussion
Since 1952, CIPRA is an autonomous non-governmental, non-profit umbrella organization. Its goal is focused to the protection and the sustainable development of the Alps. This commission represents 8 Alpine states, people and organizations, located in Italy, Germany, France, Austria, Liechtenstein, Slovenia, Switzerland and Monaco.
CIPRA considers the Alps like a reservoir for vital resources: water, forests and biodiversity of species.
Climate protection and climate change adaptation activities in the Alps are collected and analyzed by CIPRA. These measures are aimed to be sustainable to the nature, the environment, the economy and society. CIPRA warns the public to those measures that are harmful on nature, the environment, social cohesion and the economy.
As an alpine-wide network CIPRA communicates information worldwide, exerts pressure on policy makers, industry and authorities. For this reason, CIPRA develops projects that reflect their way of thinking and acting.
