Un proyecto piloto en Martorell impulsa la digitalización de la gestión del agua en Catalunya
💧🌿 *“Luchar contra el cambio climático solo será posible con el sector agroforestal.”
Una afirmación del ministro Luis Planas que refuerza lo que desde FIDER venimos impulsando: el mundo rural es clave en la transición.
En el marco de los nuevos *planes hidrológicos* del Gobierno, se pone el foco en la gestión sostenible del agua y el papel de la agricultura familiar en la *resiliencia climática*.
📌 En FIDER creemos que solo con políticas públicas construidas con participación activa de los territorios rurales se podrán abordar desafíos como la sequía, la seguridad alimentaria o el despoblamiento.
El *futuro rural* no es solo necesario: es estratégico.
