The European Outdoor Conservation Association (EOCA) is a not-for profit association constituted by companies operating within the outdoor industry. As a charitable organisation directly funding specific projects, the EOCA wants to show that the European outdoor industry is committed to putting something back into the environment, and all working together a real difference can be made. Every year, a number of non profit organisations apply to the EOCA grants to implement a conservation project through volunteering in any country around the world. Our project has become finalist and we need your vote to be selected.

The aim of our proposal is to guarantee the long term conservation of the Glorieta stream headwaters. The site is protected by the Natura 2000 Network of the Prades Mountains and protected by a land stewardship agreement with the CEN association. The deep pools, long waterfalls, and turquoise waters are admired by thousands every year, including those that come specifically to hike or canyon. The area is rich in endangered species such as the white clawed crayfish, the red tailed barbel and the white throated dipper. The main threats are the increasing numbers of visitors, litter, graffiti and damage caused by visitors, and exotic invasive plant and animal species.

Through CEN, this project will organise:

Voting will start at 00.01 (GMT) on 17th March and will end at 12.00 midday (GMT) on 31st March.
