Creation of a network of scientific and technical experts, between universities and technology centres, with a common strategy and action plan, focused on sharing knowledge and transferring technology to the business fabric, to promote the development and adaptation of collaborative robotics solutions driven by AI by SMEs in the traditional and artisanal sectors of the SUDOE space.
The Action Plan will be based on the overall transnational strategy of the CaS as defined in Action A1.3, and will serve as a model for any Sudoe territory to be able to effectively manage the Caminos to Santiago within its competence. The plan will be defined specifying the strategic lines with concrete actions and expected results, its schedule, the responsible and the metrics and methods of evaluation of progress will be established establishing the indicators to follow, goals and method of measurement. Everything will be summarised in the scorecard of the Action Plan. The areas selected for the pilot foreseen in Actions A3.2 and A3.3 are varied, with common elements and different realities that will provide data with increased value when shared. The results of this pilot will be used for the improvement and correction of the Action Plan: real data from the methods of selection and collection of information of local supply and key actors, development of local Hubs, systems of control and measurement of flows of pilgrims and the operation of stops on the road. They will be integrated into the common action plan for the Sudoe space, reflecting the different realities of the territories.
Joint strategy for the management and control of the quality of thermal waters in the Interreg SUDOE territory with the aim of valorising, preserving and optimising this valuable natural resource in the region. The project team, jointly and together with the Partners, will develop this strategy and assess the feasibility and relevance of the creation of a multi-regional entity dedicated to promoting the application of automatic water quality control elements and their mineral-medicinal value, as well as the management of data capture systems, prediction models and data obtained.
A Strategy for the Application and Marketing of Residual Biomass By-products and a Strategy for the Development of Transboundary Biorefinery Processes will be developed that will contribute to the output indicator RCO83. These strategies will be critical for the successful transfer of residual biomass by-products to other economic sectors within the area of cooperation of the Sudoe space and for the replication of cross-border processes by other organisations. Regarding the first strategy, it is focused on identifying and promoting the use of the most viable residual biomass by-products in different economic sectors within the Sudoe space. To achieve this, lessons learned and good practices from the pilot actions and previous activities of the project will be collected. This strategy will also establish continuous actions and define the economic sectors with the greatest potential for replicability. Within the framework of the implementation of this strategy, guidance and advice will be provided to entities seeking to market and apply the tested by-products and promote the adoption of public measures in the field of reducing agricultural and forest biomass waste. The second strategy will highlight biorefinery processes that have proven to be effective and efficient in converting residual biomass and that can be replicated by other organisations in the area of cooperation. Companies supplying raw materials and trading companies will be identified in the value chains of the selected sectors in order to promote new transnational partnerships that promote the circular economy in different industries. For the implementation of this strategy, the cross-border matching programme will be organised and policy proposals for cross-border cooperation between public authorities will be made.
Design and adoption at the level of local, regional and national authorities of an innovative strategy for the prevention of forest fires in the Sudoe territory, including a report on the development and implementation of the previous pilot actions (comparison of results, sustainability plan and assessment of the transferability potential to the rest of the Sudoe territory) – beneficiaries of the academic field; and the design of the strategy itself – public administrations
The ThermEcoWat project is part of an ambitious transnational initiative. The three planned socio-economic analyses have already been delivered.
The goal is to define a common strategy, adopted at the project partner level. Each organization will then be able to adapt it to its local context, while respecting the core principles defined collectively.
The TARGET Strategy shall establish a jointly developed and applicable method in the SUDOE space for: • One objective: the implementation of action plans for the sustainable management of water resources (SWRM) and the prevention of crisis situations linked to water scarcity through the integration of solutions for the use of non-conventional water resources (RANC). • Two scales of application: possible deployment at hydrographic scale, of the river basin, to identify and understand the problems by studying the suitability of the RANC, and at the local level of competition (water-sanitation, development, etc.), allowing the optimisation of the RANC. • Three principles to consider: improving the efficient use of water for all stakeholders; revalue non-conventional waters (reclaimed waters, rainwater, grey water, desalination, etc.); and put the necessary means through technical, economic and social innovation. • Four pillars to apply: consultation – state of play (current problems) – consultation – climate and socio-economic forecasting (future problems) – drawing up an action plan (actions/solutions to address problems). This method, as a toolbox of the GSRH, can be deployed differently depending on the territorial scale (local or basin) and the progress of the use of CRRs (opportunity, feasibility, improvement, etc.). It will propose solutions that have been tested through pilot actions (GT1) and demonstration actions (GT2). After analysing the transfer and replicability conditions (GT3), the TARGET Strategy will be adapted so that it can be applied throughout the SUDOE space, taking into account the different territorial levels. It will be adopted by at least 2 project partners (GRANOLLERS – Spain and EPIDOR – France) and at two territorial levels (local and river basin).
1 strategy to launch Living Labs focused on water for SBN and reuse (NB- Woll) will be developed. It will describe the overall method and implementation structure of NB- Woll based on a Quadruple Helice (ENoLL) approach to develop innovative solutions through a collaborative co-creation model involving all stakeholders in the water reuse value chain. The strategy will present a tailor-made approach, in which solutions will be defined according to demand. 1 action plan will be created to implement the NB-Woll strategy based on the experience of the 3 demonstrators.
The strategy will serve as a roadmap to improve water management and enhance resilience in rural SUDOE areas within a climate change context, building on all experiences from GestEAUr. It will draw on the solutions identified in GT1, the results from the GT2 pilot tests, and simulations from the SID_AQUARURAL tool (GT3), enabling optimized, real-time management through artificial intelligence.
The GestEAUr project aims to improve water management in rural areas of the SUDOE region (France, Spain, and Portugal) to increase water resilience in the context of climate change. A comprehensive strategy will be developed to be efficient, adapted to local needs, and sustainable, along with five specific regional action plans. Additionally, three pilot tests will be implemented to optimize water purification, treatment, and reuse processes, and the digital tool SID_AQUARURAL will be created to monitor water quality and quantity in real-time, supporting decision-making. Through these actions, GestEAUr seeks to strengthen the sustainability and resilience of rural communities in the face of climate challenges.
