by CIPRA International — published Oct 03, 2022
The EUROPARC Federation and the Fédération des Réserves Naturelles Catalanes (FRNC) are honoured to invite you to France for the EUROPARC annual conference and General Assembly.

Hosted every year in a different location in Europe, this year will take place in Argelès-sur-Mer, France. Find out who are the organisers and supporters that have made this conference possible.

This should help to anticipate trends in the Alps so that good solutions for the future can be developed already today.
