NON-INVASIVE SPECIES REFORESTATION
In certain areas of the Resort we have seen that there were a large number of invasive species and we decided that, given the possibility and space, we would replant non-invasive in certain areas of the hotel. To do this we divided this project into 4 zones.
Zone 1: The area of certain Bungalow or Spa, which is where the hill is located (towards the exit of the Resort).

Mulching the soil.
Zone 2: The terraces. The first reforestation planting is being carried out with climbing species Hedera helix and shrubs of Pistacea lentiscus, Crataegus monogyna and Phillyrea latifolia. The revegetation planting of shrubs and herbaceous plants was approximately 300 m2 in 2023.

Collaboration between the Plaza Terra Viva Foundation and the Tramuntana Organisation for Social Inclusion
The Plaza Terra Viva Foundation and the Tramuntana Organization have decided to join forces to promote social inclusion and enhance the employability of people at risk of social exclusion in the Costa Brava area.
In this regard, the Plaza Terra Viva Foundation acts as a link between Talaia Plaza EcoResort and the Tramuntana Organization for the hiring of individuals who are part of this organization in its various employment insertion programs.
In this way, efforts are being made not only to facilitate the potential hiring of individuals from the organization but also to foster the exchange of experiences and improve the coexistence and social integration of people from different realities and backgrounds.
The collaboration also includes the implementation of cultural activities, workshops, and training activities to promote awareness and understanding of diversity and social integration.
