Welcome to the ResAlliance project – a dynamic initiative dedicated to identifying and promoting existing practices in agriculture and forestry within the Mediterranean basin. Our mission is clear: to create a thematic network on landscape resilience and share solutions to tackle climate change. If you’re a practitioner in this field, we want to hear from you and showcase your efforts on our web-based platform, LandNet
Calling All Innovators!
Do you have an existing practice to show that aligns with mitigating climate change risks in the Mediterranean? Share your story with us! Whether through a short video or a written narrative, we encourage submissions from individuals and/or organizations implementing innovative practices.
Recognition Awaits!
All qualifying submissions will be featured on the ResAlliance site for the entire project duration, giving your work exposure through our website. At the ResAlliance Closing Conference in November 2025, the attendees will choose the best contributions, which will receive a Recognition Certificate and Gift.

Integrated management of pruning residues and cover crops to increase soil health & reduce fire risk in Greek Olive groves.
Vassilis Gkisakis
ELGO DIMITRA
Greece
Soil management & cover crops are essential components of an agroecological approach in agriculture in order to increase soil health aspects, f.i. soil fertility but also minimize the risk of fire incidents by reducing the biomass leftover. Hereby, is presented an integrated, simple strategy that can be easily adapted by olive farmers in order to ensure best practices for applying cover crops and reduce pruning residues.
OLIVARES VIVOS+ Biodiversity as added value in agriculture: From ecosystem services to commercial differentiation in the case of Greece

LIFE Project Olivares Vivos+
Greece
LIFE Project Olivares Vivos+ (LIFE20 NAT/ES/001487) (hereafter OV+), is a demonstrative project that aims to replicate in main olive growing European Mediterranean countries, an innovative biodiversity friendly olive farming model, based in an agri-environmental scheme. It is designed by a previous LIFE project Olivares Vivos in Andalusia (southern Spain). A scientifically based certification for biodiversity recovery was developed to transfer the added value of this farming model to extra virgin olive oils, crossing thus the market.
