The Green Alliance is a green party in the city of Bern that was founded in 1987 . It emerged from an amalgamation of activists and parties from the 1968 movement (such as the POCH ) and the newly emerging social movements . The Green Alliance has been a member of the Swiss Green Party since 2002 .
Until 2006 there was a Green Alliance of the Canton of Bern as an independent cantonal party. In 2006 the Green Alliance and the Green Free List Canton of Bern merged to form the Green Canton of Bern . In the city of Bern, however, the two parties still form independent local groups.
