LIFE Ebro Resilience P1 starts field sessions for owners and tenants of plots of land to be integrated in the future Lateral Flow Buffer Zones, an innovative intervention to adapt agricultural land to the Ebro floods.
The LIFE Ebro Resilience P1 Project organized a conference, mainly aimed at stakeholders of the Irrigation Community of La Huerta del Ebro, to inform about the measures proposed to reduce damage in extraordinary floods and that have European funding and the state and regional administrations.
The European Commission has invited the project to participate in its annual Green Week in Brussels, specifically in the session dedicated to the restoration and protection of the water cycle.
This intervention is part of Zone 1 of LIFE Ebro Resilience P1, in what is called the combined section of actions to mitigate the effects of floods and will allow the recovery of the functionality of the meander, helping to fulfill its role as a fluvial space.
On May 11, we joined this initiative that led hundreds of people to walk the river paths in the five continents, and together with the riverside population we completed the route from the meander of El Señorío (Castejón, in Navarra) and the meander of La Roza (Alfaro, La Rioja).
- This April, one of the most attractive lines of actions for strengthening social capacities and increasing knowledge about the river was launched. Journalism students from the faculties of Aragon, high school students from Alfaro and Castejón or technicians from other projects have already made interpretative descents with us.
The first phase of the new pipeline for the irrigation system of the Huerta del Ebro Irrigation Community, in Fuentes de Ebro, Zaragoza, has been completed, reaching 1,350 meters of this infrastructure. During the last week of April, a test run of the installation was carried out, with satisfactory results, and it could be used by its users immediately.
On April 28, Fuenteros and neighbors from nearby towns enjoyed a walk along the meander of Aguilar, in the Ebro river in Fuentes, in an informative and recreational day organized by the LIFE Ebro Resilience P1 project.
