Through remote fields

The project is located in the northern part of Montnegre Park in Barcelona. In general, this area is known for its high forest density, which over time has spread throughout the territory, almost completely replacing the patches of abandoned crops. Within this sector is the Ramió stream, and two urbanizations located on the edge of the park, Roca Rossa and Ágora Park. Ecological and social values are analysed and it is intendet to improve connectivity by means of ecological corridors (traced from small existing streams) and open spaces that promote biodiversity; as well as social corridors and new spaces for public use that promote the participation of citizens in the management of the park. After analyzing wildfire risk to identify areas of propagation and vulnerable zones, preventive forest management measures are proposed for the Ramió stream and the urbanizations. These measures consist of forest clearing and prescribed burns to reduce forest density, and then continue management through grazing and implementation of permaculture, taking advantage of resources and natural conditions to generate open spaces that promote the conservation and mobility of fauna, and using existing spaces and facilities to promote social identity and participation.
