Life of the association

Wednesday, 18 May 2016

After its general assembly in January ALPARC has also organised a reunion of the “Groupe de Suivi National” (National steering group), where over 10 French participants came together (park directors and financiers). The goal was to discuss the strategy of ALPARC, the orientations of the working program and especially the needs and demands of the French members. At the end this day resulted in a discussion of the French seats in the administrative council of ALPARC with regard to the reappointment of the seats in 2017. Following the French example, the other countries could also form national steering groups in the ALPARC network.


A second key activity of the last few weeks was the international workshop “Wildlife and winter sport activities” which was held March 3 and 4 2016 in Lescheraines, in the French regional natural park Massif des Bauges. You can find the full article under this link
