The EU Strategy for the Alpine Region involves 7 countries: Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Liechtenstein, Slovenia and Switzerland.

It builds on the experiences of the already existing macro-regional strategies: the European Strategy for the Danube Region and the European Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region and the European Strategy for the Adriatic and Ionian Region.

The Commission adopted a Communication and an Action Plan on the EU Strategy for the Alpine Region on 28 July 2015 . This followed the invitation from the European Council  in December 2013. It also took account – inter alia – of the on-line public consultation that was held in 2014, and the debates and discussions in the  Stakeholder Conference on the EU Strategy for the Alpine Region  (Milano, December 2014).
