Point of view: Avoiding transport collapse together
by CIPRA International — published Jul 19, 2023 — last modified Sep 05, 2023 02:43 PM — filed under: , , , , ,
As regards the growing volume of individual and transit traffic, it can be stated that neither regional nor national perspectives will lead to solutions. We have to find them together, because the Alps lie in the midst of Europe. This geographical truism is central to an understanding of transport policy problems in the Alps so as to avoid transport collapse, says Kaspar Schuler, Executive Director of CIPRA International.

Managing climate risks in biosphere reserves
by CIPRA International — published Jul 19, 2023 — last modified Apr 22, 2024 04:51 PM — filed under: , , , , ,
As an effect of climate change, droughts, floods and other natural hazards are becoming more frequent, sometimes even simultaneously. How can we as a society learn to cope with this and become more resilient in the process? What role can biosphere reserves play in the Alpine region and beyond? With CIPRA participation, a new research project is now looking into these questions.

Knowledge transfer on the co-adaptation of humans and wolves in the Alpine region
by CIPRA International — last modified May 17, 2023 09:19 AM — filed under: ,
[Project completed] The return of large carnivores is increasingly causing the fronts to harden between different groups of stakeholders. Among the large carnivores returning to the Alps, the wolf is the most widespread and therefore the most widely debated animal. Wolves are synanthropic animals and cross boundaries - physical as well as intangible ones – regularly. Thus, they have been accompanying and influencing social and cultural processes since time immemorial. In this project, CIPRA has taken on the task to collect, analyse, make available and disseminate knowledge about the co-adaptation of humans and wolves throughout the Alps.

BeeAware!
by CIPRA International — published Mar 13, 2018 — last modified May 17, 2023 09:15 AM — filed under: ,
[Project completed] The aim of the project BeeAware! is to inspire communities in the Alps for bee protection and thus to improve the livelihoods of honey and wild bees. Bees are depending on an intact biodiversity. The different bee species need different plants, nesting and drinking places in order to survive. Integral bee protection therefore means securing, improving and enlarging the habitat of these important pollinators.
