Strategy and Action Plan for the implementation of IV in vineyards of high ecological value.

The elaboration of a Strategy and an Action Plan to implement IV in vineyards of high ecological value in the SUDOE territory will be carried out. This strategy will serve as a guide for the wine sector and authorities interested in improving SSEE in vineyards, and will become an inspiring model for other regions.

Key steps in the development of the Strategy include:

Study of European and Regional Strategies: Strategies at European and consortium country level will be examined to identify successful practices.

Lessons Learned: Lessons learned during the project will be incorporated into the strategy.

Strategic Objectives: Objectives addressing ecosystem protection, promotion of SSEE and social well-being will be defined.

Strategic Lines: Strategic guidelines will be established for the implementation of the IV.

The Action Plan will include:

Actions: Details of concrete actions, pilot projects and IV programmes.

Timetable: Deadlines for the implementation of each action.

Responsibilities: Assignment of roles to the actors involved.

Resources: Identification of necessary human, financial and technical resources.

-In addition, specific dissemination activities will be carried out, such as the creation of a brochure, an informative video, micro-videos with local testimonies, a final event, days in wine appellations, contracts with specialised media and events in the cross-border area of Arribes and Alto Douro to share the results and benefits of the strategy’s approach.

In summary, the strategy and action plan aims to promote sustainability and quality in SUDOE vineyards through IV, building on previous knowledge and sharing lessons learned with the sector and local authorities.
