The joint network of the Sakana Valley
A well-functioning telecommunications infrastructure
We facilitate access to the Internet through the construction and management of a joint fiber optic network thanks to the different actors who have promoted, financed or use and connect to it. In this way, we allow people who want to be users to be on equal terms.
Defensem el dret humà d'accés a Internet com a eina bàsica d'acció i inclusió social; per això, la nostra xarxa sempre fomenta l'economia social, solidària i col·laborativa, i desenvolupa la societat de la informació i la comunicació tot eliminant la bretxa digital entre zones rurals i urbanes.
Els principis de la xarxa
Open
Anyone can access and connect without discrimination.
Lliure
Those who connect can engage in economic, social, cultural activities, contribute content, or simply exchange it.
Neutral
We ensure the non-interference of any public or private entity in the content that circulates and in the technology used.
Questions about the joint network

Is it worth making a donation?
You decide. In the joint network of Sakana, we inform and give the option for the user to have the possibility to forever eliminate the cost of the 'line fee', which is 17€ per month, that is, 204€ every year.
If you make a donation of 1,200€, after 4.4 years, you will have already amortized the amount.
Si no la fas, pagaràs aquests 17€ sempre com amb la resta de companyies de telecomunicacions.
Is it mandatory to make a donation?
It is not mandatory to make a donation as long as other resources can be found or a significant amount of donations from the rest of the participants can cover the projects. But it is important to know that in this way, you also help to extend the network to the rest of the neighbors in the area, thus making the Internet accessible to everyone and eliminating the digital divide.
How can I make a donation?
You have two ways to make the payment:
-
Or you have the option to do it through the SEPA mandate. We will send you the document that orders the bank direct debit on paper.
When can I make a donation?
-
You have the possibility to make the donation in a single payment (1,200€).
-
Or split it into two (600*2) or up to three payments (400*3).
In case of being split, payments must be made in the following months after the first payment. You can make half of the payment before installation and the other half once connected.
