Autonomy Liberty Participation Ecology (French: Autonomie, Liberté, Participation, Écologie, ALPE) is a regionalist political party active in Aosta Valley, Italy, whose progressive ideology mixes elements of social democracy, green politics and social liberalism. The party, which is a member of the European Free Alliance, is one of the main components of Autonomy Liberty Democracy (ALD), the coalition of the Valdostan centre-left.

History

ALPE was founded in January 2010 by the merger of five groups:

Valdostan Renewal (RV, social-liberal)

Lively Aosta Valley (VdA, social-liberal)

Alternative Greens (VAVdA, green, regional section of the Greens)

a group of former Democrats of the Left (DS, social-democratic)

previously un-attached people of the civil society

Carlo Perrin, a former senator, was elected first co-ordinator, later president, of the party.

In the 2013 Italian general election, both ALD candidates (ALPE's Patrizia Morelli stood for the Senate) were defeated.

In the 2013 regional election ALPE obtained 12.4% of the vote and 5 seats in the Regional Council.

President: Carlo Perrin (2010–2013), Piero Floris (2013–2016), Alexis Vallet (2015–present)

Secretary: Chantal Certan (2011–2013)
