In the framework of the last CIMAD 2024 held in Madrid, the LIFE Wood for Future, LIFE+REB and LIFE Haya projects shared the objectives and activities developed by each of the projects and evaluated the possible interactions or synergies. The three projects have in common the mitigation of climate change from the enhancement of poplar, oak and beech wood, respectively, as the axis to generate a bioeconomy in each of the different territories where these forest species are located.
The three projects are also chain projects, ranging from actions at the level of forestry and forest owners to full-scale demonstration of new structural products made with wood by local industry in real buildings. In all three projects, regulatory tests are also carried out for the recognition of these species as structural wood. A breakthrough in the wood bioeconomy sector in Spain as a whole, made up of the three projects. The networking day was attended by members of the UGR, Cesefor and PEFC Spain.
A distinguished jury, composed of the renowned painter from Granada Juan Vida, the highly acclaimed artist Cristina Megía, and the Fine Arts professor Consuelo Vallejo, was in charge of awarding the prizes in the First Open-Air Quick Painting Competition “In Lorca’s Poplar Groves”, which took place this past Sunday, May 8th, in Valderrubio (Granada).
Over a hundred stakeholders from the construction ecosystem gathered at La Noria, part of the Málaga Provincial Council, for Málaga Bio activities, including networking talks, a participatory session, business speed chatting, and live demonstrations of wood structure prefabrication and assembly.
The infrastructure would have led to the destruction of more than 30 hectares of poplar groves due to the power line easement zone. “The project threatened all the work of recent years to recover the crop,” said Victoria Carreras, president of the Marjal Association.
The tenth edition of the LIFE Wood For Future Newsletter is now available, where you can consult the latest news of the project.
