• Cooperation Stakeholders, Region and Countries
Detailed Measure
• Anti-Corruption Plan
18. Transparency International Ranking
• Rank: 30/174
• Corruption Perception Index (CPI) Score: 65/100
Main Aim
• To increase the Transparency International Ranking
to 25 before 2030
Action of Corruption
• Between privates companies/individuals and public local
administrators
• All actions connected to bad public management , waste
public money or public activities in general
19. Analysis and Assesment
• will be made by an independent audit
Hard Measures Plan
• Improvement of controls and regulations
• Improvement of police forces by financing and adopting
modern methods of economical investigation
Soft Measures Plan
• Preventative measures
• Association and meeting
• Communication system
• Local Certification Authority
• Special rewards and/or low taxation
20. Communication System
• composed by a free phone number and a website that
people can use in order to give anonymous denouncement;
these information have to be collected in order to be
statistically analysed and then could be used for further
detailed investigation
Local Certification Authority
• will guarantee the “good name” of private companies
through clear and modern method of certification and at the
same time will control local administrations
Special rewards or low taxation
• will be given to companies/individual that will prove their
“good name”. For those that will also prove their eco-
friendly activities will be given proportional additional
rewards/low taxation

23. Starting Costs
• Still unknown but have to be spent by local/national
administrations
Maintenance and Management Costs
• In order to develop an economically self-sustained
plan, these money can be found thanks to the plan
results
24. Direct Result
• Corruption increses the costs of tender assignment
• Decreasing corruption means clear tender
assignment subjected only to free market laws and
national/european regulamentations
• Costs of tender assignment will higly decrease and
local administrations will have more money
available to reinvest in the project or to allocate in
other measures
25. Indirect Result
• To find money for bribes companies need to falsify
their balance sheet hiding part of their taxable
profit
• Fighting corruption means that companies profit
will be clearly declared and then taxed
• As example:

Notas do Editor
The number of schools that start using the program are shown in the graph. The goal is that each school in the towns near the river Guadalete are following the program by 2020. We have decided to start with Jerez de la Frontera, Arcos de la Frontera and Zahara because they are large towns and they are spread along the river.Each year a new town is added to the program. Each year in the towns that participate in the program the number of schools following the program is doubled (eg. Jerez de la Frontera: total 76 primary schools 2014 (year 1) 13 schools 2015 (year 2) 26 schools 2016 (year 3) 39 schools, etc.The program will start in 2014. In the mean time the teachers that are going to join the program next year will get training to be able to work with the program.
This table shows the activities that will be done during the program in the primary schools. With these activities we hope to make children aware of the river Guadalete and the natural values it has. The activities themselves will not change though the theme will (e.g. bicycle trip: may in one year be along the downstream of the river and next year upstream of the river). In the first year story books that already exist will be used, in 2015 we hope story books explicitly made for the program will be made. During this program we try to involve the parents of the children to also educate them. The schedule for the first year of the primary schools is shown in two slide from now.
This table shows the activities that will be done during the program in the secondary schools. With these activities we hope to make students aware of the river Guadalete and the natural values it has. The activities themselves will not change though the theme will (e.g. laboratory work: may in one year be about water quality and the next year about ecology). One of the activities is that students from the secondary school work as volunteers at local foundations to gain experience about nature values.In this program students from the Cádiz university will help to perform the tasks in the program (e.g. help with laboratory work). The schedule for the first year of the secondary schools is shown in the next slide.
The graph in this slide shows the planning for both primary and secondary schools in the first year of the program (2014-2015).For each month a maximum of three hours is given to perform the activities of that month, the distribution of the hours throughout the month can be decided by each school by themselves.During classes such as biology, chemistry and history the teacher talks about the Guadalete River and aspects of that river in relation to the subject taught.To pay for this project we need financial support from sponsors. Possible sponsors could be ‘Ecologistas en acción’ and possibly others. We hope that after the (success) of the first year of the program that potential sponsors will come by themselves to sponsor this initiative for future years. We tried to keep the costs of the project as low as possible by employing the help of students of Cádiz university and volunteers.
These are the other objectives made for the awareness theme. We chose child education because if we can make the child aware of the natural values the Guadalete river basin holds, we can secure the future of the river.
There are three main aspects regarding to improve sewage infrastructure in JerezBudget To improve source so that there will be less water goes into the sewage systemTo increase the storage of volume of sewage system by improve the main infrastructure so that even if there is a overflow the sewage system can still handle that
Two resources of budgetCharge extra tax from heavy industry or companies who produce large amount of wastewater or worse wastewater; also extra tax for tourism related facilities like hotels or golf clubs which consumed lots of waterSegment the price of water with different range of amount.
Infiltration and vegetated systems can be spread all over the city, so the percentage of impermeable area would decrease.
Underground Infiltration System to absorb rainwater so that the volume of rainwater which goes into the sewage will decrease.It can also filtrate the water a little bit before the overflow goes into the sewage.
The oversized pipes can delay and decrease the peak of a heavy rainfall. The pipes should be easy accessible because they need more maintenance than other normal pipes.
If overflow (rainfall), water will stay in the retention reservoir, so the sediment will settle in retention reservoir and if water start to overflow to the surface water from retention reservoir, only the upper clean part will flow to the surface water
This is a picture of WatersquareBethemsquare in Rotterdam.This square can be used in multiple ways, besides collecting rainwater, it’s possible to sport, skate and dance in one of the three basins.
