The Catalunya La Pedrera Foundation launches a new project to transform the Pyrenees through the bioeconomy
The Catalunya La Pedrera Foundation, together with five other organisations, is launching Bio For Piri, a forest bioeconomy project in the Pyrenees that recently got under way. Over the next two years, it will implement a series of actions aimed at reducing the risk of large-scale forest fires in two pre-Pyrenean regions: Alinyà, in Lleida, and Aínsa-Sobrarbe, in Huesca. The project’s mission is to promote the forest bioeconomy through woodland management as a solution to two of the region’s major challenges: forest fires and demographic decline.
