The "For the Alps" multivision is an ALPARC project undertaken in conjunction with 20 network partners. It was created by Alex Rowbotham (AGR Digital Media) and set to original music by Sandro di Stefano. The production contains over 400 original photographs, most of which were taken by staff from the Alpine parks.

The media experience was premiered on 24 May 2012, the European Day of Parks. Over the summer, it was screened by our partners in six Alpine countries. The multivision production was then presented as part of AlpWeek 2012, which was held this September in Poschiavo (Switzerland).The multivision production is now available for use by all protected area managers in the ALPARC network.
