About the Department of the Environment and Housing website

The Department of the Environment and Housing website is the citizens' entrance to the information and services the Department offers.

With a wish for transparency and to bring government agencies closer to the public, the Department of the Environment and Housing works to maintain and extend its website: a website that is highly valued by users, which has become a point of reference for environmental information and that we wish to be a living, useful tool, which is permanently updated, in order to aid relations between the Department and the public, and between the public and the  economic and social agents.

The Department of the Environment and Housing is reference for the people of Catalonia and the world who require information on the bodies, people and actions that make up the Department.

Furthermore, the website offers easy access to practical information on the resources we make available to the public.

History

Over ten years ago now, on 2 April 1997, the then Department of the Environment presented its website, which had only 300 pages at the time.

Over the years, the Department website has become the benchmark for environmental information in Catalonia, reflecting the efforts to offer transparency and service in all its units, which have published ever more information and data on the Internet.

But this achievement is also thanks to the users, who help us improve day by day with their confidence and loyalty and make this a website for all.

There are currently 15,000 documents available and we serve an average of 3 million pages a month.
