Action C.9: Valley Management Plan
Concrete action
OBJECTIVE
This action will set up two pilot projects, one in Malta and one in Gozo. These will serve as case studies to monitor the effectiveness of the masterplans and technical guidelines developed within the Catchment Modelling action (Action A8).
The pilot sites will be selected based on the ecosystem services evaluation carried out in the Action A8, which will rank valleys and sub-catchments according to ecosystem services and socio-economic values provided, and information gathered during the creation of the masterplans, such as stakeholder feedback.
