Galicia and Portugal will promote a training action to train public personnel for the development of green infrastructure in the framework of the Poctep Green Gap project, in whose presentation day participated this Monday the second vice-president and conselleira of Environment, Territory and Housing, Ángeles Vázquez.
During her speech, the second vice-president explained that the project aims to help local administrations play a more relevant role in the promotion of green infrastructures in the cross-border area.
In this line, he advanced that the partners participating in this initiative, led by the Institute of Territorial Studies (IET), an entity under the Second Vice-Presidency and Department of Environment, Territory and Housing, in addition to launching the Galician-Portuguese School of Green Infrastructure, will prepare four strategic planning documents and develop seven projects on this subject.
“The objective is to facilitate the training of public workers of local and provincial administrations in the development of a green infrastructure strategy,” saidÁngeles Vázquez, who recalled that this measure has acquired in recent years a prominent role in land management, policy and research.
