Though I already answered this on the Coblist I figure there are 
probably some on WWAT who might also be interested in the answer, so 
here goes:


The nearest equivalent to WWAT in Europe is probably the Hands for 
Knowledge (H4K) group.  It's been a while since I checked in on them, 
but they were much more inclined toward having a central group 
approve both the projects and the participants in advance, as opposed 
to our somewhat cavalier, caveat emptor method with WWAT.  Of course, 
you're welcome to post projects/requests based in Spain to WWAT, as 
well.

You also might want to get in touch with Maren Termens 
<autoconstruccin at yahoo.es> and/or Rikki  Nitzkin 
<rikkinitzkin at earthlink.net>, who are both involved in strawbale work 
(and probably other stuff) in Spain.

Best of luck!
