Mediterranean Consortium Midyear workshop in Guadalaviar – Spain

SPNL team has participated on the Mediterranean Consortium Midyear workshop that was held in Guadalaviar Spain from July 10 to July 14 2016. The Constortium’s Spanish Partner Tranhumancia y Naturalezea made sure to host the workshop in Guadalaviar for it is the key location for transhumance and home for one of the chief museums on Transhumance in Spain. Discussions on the progress, the current status and the coming activities of the project from the entire team were held successfully by the entire team.

Third day was an excursion day for the team where they visited the traditional Transhumance Museum highlighting on the grazing practices in the region, the techniques and equipment used followed by a dinner with the shepherd community.

The workshop was very productive in terms of the project and covered one of the Mediterranean Consotrium’s aim which is to introduce the different cultures of the consortium partners to one another and exchange experiences among them.
