This distinction represents an improvement from the previously awarded 3 stars and reinforces the recognition of the work developed by the Municipality in the area of youth. The recognition highlights the Municipality's commitment to implementing local youth policies that promote active participation, inclusion, and the creation of new opportunities for the young people of the municipality.
In recent years, the local authority has been consolidating its intervention in this area, with particular emphasis on the development of the Municipal Youth Plan. This strategic instrument has made it possible to identify the main needs, challenges, and expectations of young people, contributing to the definition of priorities and the development of more adequate responses to the territory's reality.
In this context, the Municipality has focused on developing measures and projects that value the role of young people in the community, namely through the creation and promotion of spaces dedicated to youth, the encouragement of civic participation, and the reinforcement of opportunities for involvement in the life of the municipality.
The awarding of this seal, unanimously approved by the Validation Committee of the National Network of Youth-Friendly Municipalities, recognizes the progress made and the commitment of the local authority to continue developing policies that respond to the needs and ambitions of the new generations.
More than a distinction, these 4 stars represent an incentive to continue building a more participatory, inclusive municipality that is attentive to the voice of young people.
