The main objectives of this project are to raise social awareness in people regarding their local environment and carry out practices that will contribute to the restoration of the quarry fronts and natural connectivity. The activities would be held nearby the Rezola Cement Factory in the municipality of Arrigorriaga (Bizkaia). The whole project is included within a framework of environmental education, with the purpose of  making citizens part of the conservation actions. We intend to give value to the biodiversity present in the quarries and a better understanding of the interaction between nature and human activities in the environment.
