We need your donation to cover the costs of two student interns of Escola Superior Agrária de Coimbra on their project of georeferencing. Thank you, Trinhão no Mapa
Trinhão no Mapa project came as a result of the great fire that hit, among others, the villages of Trinhão and Vale Porco - villages located in the municipality of Pampilhosa da Serra, in the district of Coimbra - on June 18, 2017.
Following this event that has occurred in the past (for example in August 2003), the inhabitants and descendants of these villages have joined forces to recover damages and prevent future fires.
In order to reorganize the forest territory and rustic properties in these two villages, we contacted the Agrarian School of Coimbra to help us georeferencing properties with their professional GPS. The challenge was accepted, we will have the help of Ricardo Fernandes and Rita Carvalho who will be in Trinhão between May 21 and July 6, available to help the land owners of the area.

The project will be supervised by professors at the school and the final product will be presented in the summer. To maintain the rigor of this task, we want to support our two trainees with: the daily trip from Sertã and Figueiró dos Vinhos to Trinhão, the trips by car with the owners to the properties when necessary, and the copies they will provide with the land register in paper and in digital format.
Help us organize the territory of the Trinhão and its surroundings. The success of this work will allow a greater control in the cleaning of the land around the dwellings and, if there is interest from the owners, will lead to the creation of an organized and sustainable green space reducing the amount of fuel trees that exist around our villages.
We hope, in the near future, to serve as an example for other neighboring villages in order to preserve the landscape of one of the most beautiful counties in Portugal.

Reflorestar Portugal e Defender o Ambiente
A iniciativa do Trinhão no Mapa já mereceu o elogio da Proteção Civil e merece ser apoiada por todos os que desejam que possamos construir um mundo melhor, através da defesa do ambiente. A reflorestação ordenada e sustentável começa na identificação dos terrenos rústicos abandonados ou subaproveitados. A campanha de ajuda para os custos de georreferenciação do Trinhão no Mapa tem esse objetivo e todos podem colaborar com pequenos contributos.
O Grupo de Trabalho para a Apoio à Reordenação do Território Trinhaense, agradece aos que já colaboraram ou se queiram associar a esta campanha.
