The strategic objective of EVC-Árrago is to ensure the conditions of forest management to improve forest fire prevention. In turn, achieve a better protection of the soil against erosion processes, regulation of the hydrological regime, the mitigation of the effects of Climate Change, preserving biodiversity, as well as to contribute to rural development in our Valley.

In addition, we have the following specific objectives:

-Regenerating the mosaic landscape of Alto Extremadura as a guarantee of resilience to climate change, forest fires, and the abandonment of agricultural activity.

-Innovate in traditional agroforestry practices in the mountain forest ecoregion of western and northwestern Iberia, conserving biodiversity and generating green and circular economies.
