AlpES Project

The AlpES project title comes from “Alpine Ecosystem Services”, and as such, is focused on the understanding and mapping ecosystem services(ES) in the Alpine Space, and then better integrating the concept of ES and project findings with policy in the region.

Aims and Activities

Different key actors from the Alpine Space will be involved in the project development. In close collaboration with stakeholders AlpES will:

  1. develop an Alpine ecosystem services concept,
  2. carry out a mapping and assessment of ecosystem services for the Alpine Space area including field testing in selected study regions across the Alpine Space,
  3. provide stakeholders with the results through an interactive web GIS, and
  4. ensure a multi-level and cross-sectoral transfer of AlpES results to a maximum number of stakeholders via a suite of innovative, tailored and transferable learning tools and targeted activities.

Project Partners

The AlpES project is carried out by a strong partnership of ten partners from six Alpine countries (Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Liechtenstein and Slovenia ). The project partners have various backgrounds, ranging from public research institutes, a private planning and consultancy agency, to public authorities, ensuring access to a wide variety of stakeholders. The project partners are supported by twenty observers with strong interest in ecosystem services in the Alpine space.
