Overview
The Alpine Region faces shared challenges that no country can solve alone, from climate change and digital transformation to youth engagement and institutional coordination. The EU Strategy for the Alpine Region (EUSALP) provides the strategic framework to address them, but it needs strong and efficient governance to turn priorities into action.
4Support EUSALP strengthens and upgrades EUSALP’s governance by building on the achievements of Support EUSALP (2023–2025). It reinforces the Secretariat, improves coordination between political and technical levels, and introduces more effective monitoring, embedding and capacity-building tools.
By doing so, the project ensures that the EUSALP Action Plan is implemented in a coherent, measurable and future-oriented way across all Alpine countries, making macro-regional cooperation more concrete, more efficient and more impactful.

Outcomes
-
Governance Architecture Paper and Rules of Procedures
Development of an enhanced governance Architecture Paper that will update institutional procedures also through the activation of a working group -
Monitoring system platform
Online monitoring platform supporting the systematic tracking of Action Groups’ deliverables, outputs and indicators. The platform builds on the monitoring matrix as a reference for data collection and validation by AG Leaders with support from Policy Officers. Primarily designed as an internal decision-support tool, it ensures transparency towards wider audiences through synthesised information feeding Annual Progress Reports and public communication on EUSALP progress and results -
Number of organisations cooperating with each other and contributing to the multi-level governance of EUSALP
This indicator will assess the extent to which organisations have strengthened their institutional capacity through participation in transnational cooperation activities. Participating organisations will be recorded in a matrix according to their institutional level (national, regional, local), and the number of interactions (meetings, events) will be considered. This approach will provide a clear understanding of how this work package has contributed to enhancing the governance system of EUSALP -
Collaborative Intranet for EUSALP community
Collaborative intranet providing structured and secure access to EUSALP working documents, coordination materials and strategic resources, supporting information sharing, transparency and engagement among governance bodies, Action Groups and involved institutions -
Policy recommendations
Document summarising key policy recommendations from the missions/strategic initiatives of the AGs supported by information about targeted policy level & policy gaps
