Episode Details

Andorra is taking a bold step toward environmental stewardship by officially proposing the Valls de Canillo i Ordino as its first national natural park, boosting protected land to nearly 31% of the country. Minister Guillem Casal champions quality-focused conservation, confident the target can be met before his term ends—thanks to one parish’s ready-to-go project. Praising local cooperation and existing groundwork, the plan aims to safeguard ecologically vital areas without overextending protection. Now heading to parliament after ministerial approval, the initiative prioritizes research and sustainable activities while banning disruptive development—a landmark move showcasing Andorra’s serious commitment to preserving its unique landscapes for generations to come.
