project aim

Land in the Alps - especially in the Alpine valleys - is a scarce and finite resource. As a result of climate change, there are increasing conflicts of land use between different users. The transnational BrokeringSpaces project aims to collect and evaluate best practices. The results of the project are intended to provide a real decision-making aid for regions and municipalities facing conflicts of land use.

project aim

BeeAware! would like to inspire communities in the Alps for bee protection and thus improve the livelihoods of honey and wild bees. Bees depend on an intact biodiversity. The different bee species need different plants, nesting and drinking places to survive. Holistic bee protection must therefore mean preserving, improving and increasing the habitat of these important pollinators.
