European Forum Alpbach around the world
The European Forum Alpbach promotes intergenerational dialogue beyond boarders not only during its annual event but on a long-term basis. For many years, our network of former participants and contributors has connected people around the globe all with one goal: To generate new ideas, to spark action and to shape the future of Europe.
Forum Alpbach Network (FAN)
