Fecha de inicio: 01/01/2016
Fecha de fin: 2028

Description

The Action Plan's main objective is to comprehensively address flood risks in this region, promoting a preventive and adaptive approach. The plan includes both structural interventions, such as the construction of dams and adapted housing, and non-structural ones, which seek to reduce the social and economic vulnerability of the population, strengthening its resilience to natural threats. In addition, it focuses on the recovery and conservation of the region's natural wealth and cultural heritage, guaranteeing sustainable development. The plan also contemplates adaptation to climate change, considering the specific characteristics of La Mojana, a delta with high vulnerability to flooding, and will be implemented through a prioritization model and cost-benefit analysis.
