The 2nd of June was marked by the official start of the event commemorating the 10th anniversary of Ericeira’s World Surfing Reserve – EWSR. After an inaugural ceremony where several news were revealed, the first of the five Digital Talks that will integrate the “Ericeira WSR+10” project, promoted by Ericeira Surf Clube, took place.

One of the speakers at “The World Surfing Reserve of Ericeira & the Territory” was Juanma Murua, management consultant of ​​cities and territory and responsible for the ongoing study, within the scope of EWSR+10, on the assessment of the impact of the EWSR in the last ten years.

In his presentation on “Vilas Desportivas & Território” (Sports Villas & Territory), Juanma Murua shared a preliminary analysis on the impact of surfing in this territory, as he does not yet have enough data to draw conclusions for his study. Murua explains how the idea of ​​this project came across and how it can prove to be a very useful tool for further assessments of this and other territories. The aim is to assess the impact – in four dimensions: environmental, economic, social and image/identity – of surfing activities (and related) over these ten years.
