The project had 5 main objectives: (1) Drafting of an overarching strategy for river renaturalization, flood risk reduction and reorganization and integration of the riverine space; (2) Restoration of the riparian forest; (3) Promotion of the biodiversity associated with the river; (3) Cleaning-up the river; (4) Removal of potentially problematic invasive and exotic species; (5) Building public awareness and engagement for long-term success. Each of these objectives was set up as a series of actions and subactions with a wide range of indicators to measure progress. itionally, the project sought the active involvement of the local community in all actions, through participatory, governance and educational activities.
