The agreement, jointly signed with the Catalan Water Agency, the The Pioneers of our Time Foundation, the town councils of Albanyà and Sant Llorenç de la Muga, and the Consorci Salines-Bassegoda, establishes a shared framework for the conservation and restoration of ecologically valuable river ecosystems. The agreement is valid for four years.
The initiative is the result of a co-creation process involving 13 organizations, which have defined a common conservation strategy. Work lines include habitat improvement, ecological monitoring, institutional cooperation, and environmental awareness to foster citizen involvement.
The agreement's scope covers areas with various environmental protection designations, such as the Muga Headwaters River Natural Reserve and Natura 2000. The conservation of these systems is relevant for their contribution to biodiversity and climate change adaptation.
River stewardship serves as a key tool for territorial co-responsibility, transforming shared objectives into concrete conservation actions and ensuring the long-term preservation of river ecosystems.
