And for us, for the Foundation, these networking projects are fundamental.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#567f3e\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>What\u00b4s key for executing a project like FIRE-ADAPT \u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It requires dedication because it&#8217;s a project with lots of partners from different cultures and with different ways of working and interacting with each other. So, for me and the team, it means a very high involvement. Also, considering what the partners require in whatever phase they are. Lastly, having a positive mindset, because we know that the results that can be produced (the network and the scientific results) are very important and valuable. For this reason, we are very keen on investing that much energy and efforts in making it happen, because it worth it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#567f3e\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>What\u00b4s the potential of fire\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fire has been part of our Mediterranean ecosystems and many ecosystems worldwide for a long time, before we humans were here. With the years we have learned from many cultures and civilizations that have been using fire. There are many traditional uses, and the beautiful part of this is that different cultures have learned how to use fire and apply it to the ecosystems in different ways. So, it&#8217;s a learning process. We (PCF) know a little bit about the use of fire in the Mediterranean ecosystems. For instance, one of the most relevant uses was clearing the forest to make space for pastures and agriculture. In some places of the world, this is still happening, but we don&#8217;t see this as clear as it used to be in the Mediterranean.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the last decades we have taken a different direction. So, in general terms we are not using fire in the way that we could be using it. Obviously, the fire community knows about the role of fire, and we are all very committed to restoring its traditional uses and important role in ecosystems. What we want to do is to empower these cultures and this knowledge that supports the use of fire because we see it as a positive tool to manage our landscape and prevent seeing worse wildfire scenarios than the ones we are seeing right now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#567f3e\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>This is me\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#e6613d\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Favourite food:<\/mark><\/strong> pasta<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#e6613d\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Favourite film:<\/mark><\/strong> The Others, by Alejandro Amen\u00e1bar<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#e6613d\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Favourite music:<\/mark><\/strong> John Bartlett<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#e6613d\" class=\"has-inline-color\">I admire:<\/mark><\/strong> many people because of many different things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#e6613d\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Superpower I\u00b4d like to have:<\/mark><\/strong> time travel<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#e6613d\" class=\"has-inline-color\">In Spain, I\u2019d take you to:<\/mark> <\/strong>some corner of the coast of Girona.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Role in FIRE-ADAPT: Project Coordinator Organisation: Pau Costa Foundation (PCF) Country: Spain What I highlight about the project\u00a0\u00a0 For PCF this project is very important because it connects people and allows exchanges between different actors of the fire community, in particular between research and practitioners from Europe and Latin America.
