Renaturalization and Resilience in the City of Zamora (RenaturaliZA)
PRTR Call for Proposals Project
The main objective of the project is to take the first steps in terms of green infrastructure in the city of Zamora through an ambitious proposal that includes the drafting of a strategy, but also high-impact renaturalization actions to be located in some of the main points of revitalization of the city. In addition, through pilot actions that demonstrate the diversity of green and blue infrastructure solutions, as well as an approach that aims to maximize ownership of the project, the goal is to lay the foundations for a modern, biodiverse, connected, entrepreneurial, inclusive city that looks forward to a resilient, green and lively future.

2.938.377,78€RenaturaliZA is an innovative proposal to create a green infrastructure strategy for the city of Zamora inspired by its own identity and based on the concept of cultural landscapes as an expression of the co-evolution between humans and the environment in each territory. This idea articulates the core actions of the proposal, through which the two main nodes of the network, the Duero River and the Valorio Forest, are improved and connected, and a new corridor is created along the wall as an incipient green ring where historical and cultural heritage is intermingled. In addition to these actions, a set of pilot actions will be developed to show the full potential of the multifunctionality of green infrastructure and Nature-based Solutions to promote biodiversity, the provision of ecosystem services and the well-being and health of people. The project proposes the renaturation of 749,854 m2 of urban spaces.
