Sustainable Development
Develop ecotourism Grazalema natural park &
upstream part of the Guadalete river
Utilizing resources that already exist in the area (accommodation, services, hiking trails)
Connecting and coordinating areas of interest
Hiking, Pueblos Blancas, river basin
Ecotourism in Guadalete river basin
Improving management of resources
Earning money to whole area
Money is used to develop the area ecologically
Raising awareness of the local people

Timeline Ecotourism
Existing:◦ Accommodation◦ Trails◦ Pueblos Blancos – White villages◦ tourist information◦ restaurants, shops
needed:◦ Marketing◦ Connecting and adding new trails◦ New cabins
Resources
Ecotourists pay taxes◦ Creating a foundation◦ Ecotorists are asked to pay €5,- extra for a night◦ Small part of the price for food and drinks goes to
foundatiom Subcidices from EU
◦ UNESCCO protected Area◦ Making hiking trails
Local Company’s◦ Invest in hotels / cabins

Measures• Risk&Emergency Management Plan• Spatial Development Plan• Cooperation Stakeholders, Region and Countries
Detailed Measure• Anti-Corruption Plan
Good Management
Transparency International Ranking • Rank: 30/174• Corruption Perception Index (CPI) Score: 65/100
Main Aim• To increase the Transparency International Ranking to
25 before 2030
Action of Corruption• Between privates companies/individuals and public local
administrators• All actions connected to bad public management , waste
public money or public activities in general
Anti-Corruption Plan
Analysis and Assesment• will be made by an independent audit
Hard Measures Plan• Improvement of controls and regulations• Improvement of police forces by financing and adopting
modern methods of economical investigation
Soft Measures Plan• Preventative measures • Association and meeting• Communication system• Local Certification Authority• Special rewards and/or low taxation
Detailed Measures
Communication System• composed by a free phone number and a website that people
can use in order to give anonymous denouncement; these information have to be collected in order to be statistically analysed and then could be used for further detailed investigation
Local Certification Authority• will guarantee the “good name” of private companies through
clear and modern method of certification and at the same time will control local administrations
Special rewards or low taxation• will be given to companies/individual that will prove their “good
name”. For those that will also prove their eco-friendly activities will be given proportional additional rewards/low taxation
Focus
Time-Table
Independent Audit Private Companies/Individuals Politicians and Local Administrations Government Media The Judiciary Police Corps Certification Authority
Who is involved in the plan?
Starting Costs• Still unknown but have to be spent by
local/national administrations
Maintenance and Management Costs• In order to develop an economically self-sustained
plan, these money can be found thanks to the plan results
Financing/1
………….HOW???
Direct Result• Corruption increses the costs of tender
assignment• Decreasing corruption means clear tender
assignment subjected only to free market laws and national/european regulamentations
• Costs of tender assignment will higly decrease and local administrations will have more money available to reinvest in the project or to allocate in other measures
Financing/2.1
Indirect Result• To find money for bribes companies need to falsify
their balance sheet hiding part of their taxable profit
• Fighting corruption means that companies profit will be clearly declared and then taxed
• As example:
