In this case study, we will concentrate on information concerning effective administrative approaches, and co-management practices in the Buffer Zone that contribute to the conservation of biodiversity, and traditional sustainable landscapes. In the first part, the Buffer Zone is examined as a shelter of endangered flora, and fauna species, while in the second part, farming, and grazing are addressed as practices that contribute to the conservation of heritage landscapes, which are otherwise increasingly reduced in non-Buffer Zone areas due to mass tourism, and property development.
The objective of this case study is to demonstrate that the ecological transition can become successful if carried out in harmony with the environment, landscape and local communities.
Vilawatt consists of creating a new joint structure formed by citizens, companies, and the City Council to create an integrated energy operator for more efficient energy management. This collaborative structure will take the form of a Public-Private-Citizen Partnership (PPCP).
This operator will promote the capitalization of savings to finance the comprehensive energy rehabilitation of 3 buildings of 60 dwellings (initially in the Montserratina neighborhood), and will work to strengthen the local economy by creating a local currency
In this part young people will discover how ecology transformation on islands can make a change toward sustainable tourism, and in that way bring benefit to environment protection, and climate change.
In this case study we will learn how a very modest material, the straw, can become the main ingredient of a passive (very low energy loss) house. The houses with straw walls from the BioBuilds company are certified by The Passive House Institute from Germany for their energy efficiency.
The aim of the DIO case study is to motivate young people to turn towards the agricultural sector, to promote ecological agriculture through research, education, and innovation, as well as the sustainable land management.
