Aquasport - Creation of a cooperative for the management of public sport facilities

D - PR & TRANSFERABILITY

D1 - Please describe how the GP communicated its experience and success to the public
The initiative has been spread to the general public not only in the municipality, but also in the county. The company has been presented to several contests where it has been awarded.

D2 - Please describe how the GP communicated with local or national decision makers?

D3 - Are there any elements of this project that you think would transfer particularly well to other contexts?
The transfer of management of public spaces to private companies. The management in public hands would show a deficit, while a private company in the sector would find serious barriers to the initial investment if the facilities were not created beforehand. Moreover, the use of renewable energies constitute an example of energy efficiency. The use of solar panels and biomass is basic for the sustainability of the activity, since the maintenance of the swimming-pool requires a very high expense of electricity.
