Connect alpine Space 2021+: Resilience to climate change

This year marks a transition year between our current programme and the future Interreg Alpine Space programme 2021-2027. Already this autumn, we will launch the first call for project proposals. It is now time to bring together all interested stakeholders to further discuss the challenges of the area and to find ways to tackle them through cooperation.
