On May 15, 2025, WWF Portugal hosted the second RurALL workshop in Boticas under Work Package 11 (WP11), focused on community-based participation practices. Building on the outcomes of the previous session (WP6), this workshop addressed the growing interest of local communities in replicating successful co-management models for abandoned and common lands. These models have already demonstrated that productive economic activities can coexist with nature protection, creating a sustainable balance for rural territories.

On 21 June, we held the second workshop in Sárisáp as part of the RurALL co-creation process. The atmosphere was full of energy and openness, and we were delighted to welcome several new participants to the group.

Together, we created a local value map, exploring what matters most to the people of Sárisáp and how these values can guide a climate-resilient rural future. We also continued developing the previously prioritised local needs and ideas. Focusing on the most supported proposals, we began identifying the necessary resources, implementation steps, activities and sub-tasks that would move them toward realisation.
