Educational material on protecting the environmental and human resources of our mountains.

Background

Alp Action – International Corporate Fund for the Environment was launched in February 1990 during the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum in Davos. Operating under the auspices of the Bellerive Foundation, Alp Action is an independent, non-political organization focused on environmental action and awareness.

Objectives

Alp Action aims to make a tangible contribution to preserving the diversity, natural, and cultural vitality of the Alps. Through exclusive One-Company-One-Project partnerships, Alp Action integrates environmental concerns into the corporate culture of its partners. The projects supported by Alp Action contribute to the preservation of mountain flora, fauna, rivers, and lakes, as well as promoting traditional agriculture, crafts, and the rehabilitation of historic sites. These projects are supported by local alpine communities, governments, and scientific and environmental organizations.
