The strategy aims to agree on the long-term objectives and lines of action shared by the consortium that are integrated to improve the prevention and management of fire risk in the forests of the SUDOE space, consolidating the viability of prevention plans through the valorisation of extracted biomass and helping to develop the resilience of forests without compromising their ecosystem, economic and social services. This strategy will be defined around four axes: 1. Fire prevention planning by integrating the preservation of forest biodiversity 2. Innovation in forest biomass harvesting methods 3. Forest management, logistics centres and biomass consumption at local level. 4. Training of staff and staff of qualified crews in sustainable forest management. The strategy shall include: — Diagnostic progress report (A 1.1) and contextualisation of territorial challenges Agreed objectives to address challenges Priority lines of intervention to achieve the objectives Solutions developed and tested in WG 2 and identified good practices — Territorial action plans for the adoption of the strategy. The strategy is oriented to entities of the consortium and other local actors inside and outside the SUDOE territory to adopt the lines of intervention and solutions developed in BIO4RES with the aim of valorising the forest biomass used by the prevention work for its positive impact on the local environment, generating renewable energy, creating employment in rural environments (A 1.3).
