CASCADE FUNDING STORIES (SPAIN) | ProUmbrías

ProUmbrías is a non-profit association formed by rural landowners in Umbrías (Gredos, Spain), bringing together more than 400 members and managing around 700 hectares—82% of the municipality’s private land. Our mission is to jointly manage these properties in a sustainable way while promoting long-term rural development across the Aravalle region. Through the project “Concentrated and Sustainable Management of Smallholdings in Umbrías,” we have worked with local authorities, farmers, and community stakeholders to restore land use, organize territory without new infrastructure, lease grazing areas, support landowners with rental income, reduce wildfire risk, and strengthen local population stability. Founded in 2009 after years of community collaboration, ProUmbrías continues to engage public institutions, support regional initiatives, and advocate for sustainable rural management that protects landscapes, livelihoods, and biodiversity for future generations.
