Research at Jungfraujoch – Vision and Mission Statement 2015-2050
White Paper
Strategy for further developing the capabilities and infrastructure of the unique, internationally renowned High Altitude Research Station Jungfraujoch and for maintaining its clean environment.
The vision of SCNAT and HFSJG is that the Research Station Jungfraujoch remains, and continues to develop as one of the leading high altitude infrastructures worldwide for investigating alpine surroundings, particularly in environmental and climate research.
The mission is to maintain, improve and extend, as required, the infrastructure of the Research Station Jungfraujoch and to protect its clean environment in close collaboration with the stakeholders engaged in the touristic exploitation of Jungfraujoch, so that the station can continue to serve as one of the best-equipped high altitude research stations worldwide, with the ability to support cutting-edge research, including environmental monitoring and campaigns in various additional scientific fields.

Unique en son genre, la station de recherche du Jungfraujoch, à 3500 mètres d’altitude, est reconnue au niveau international depuis plus de quatre-vingts ans. Sa réputation, fondée sur un bel équilibre entre tourisme et science, doit rester au top niveau mondial. Afin de maintenir cette qualité, la Commission suisse pour la Station Scientifique du Jungfraujoch (membre de l’Académie suisse des sciences naturelles) a formulé des lignes directionnelles, en collaboration avec la Fondation internationale des stations scientifiques du Jungfraujoch et Gornergrat, dans un livre blanc qui vient de paraître sous le titre « White Paper : Research at Jungfraujoch – Vision and Mission Statement 2015-2050 ».
