Project

During my stay in Faber I will take part in the days for the promotion of resilient territories, because during my mandate I have been related to movements such as the economy of the common good or transition towns. The most significant projects have had to do with citizen participation, selective garbage collection, aid to make the daily consumption of citizens more sustainable or the public network of fiber and antennas.
