The Aldaia City Council has begun drafting the III Municipal Plan for Childhood and Adolescence (PMIA), a key instrument to guide local public policies aimed at young people between 2027 and 2031.

This document will establish a solid framework for action to guarantee the protection, development, and active participation of children and adolescents in the municipal area. The project is based on a rights-based approach and institutional transversality, seeking broad involvement across all areas.
The PMIA will define clear strategic objectives, concrete lines of action, a detailed calendar, corresponding technical responsibilities, and monitoring indicators that will allow the impact of the implemented proposals to be measured. This will ensure efficient management and continuous evaluation of results.
The initial phase of the plan includes the preparation of a comprehensive diagnosis. This diagnosis will analyze demographic and socioeconomic data, review existing resources and programs, and identify emerging needs of the child and adolescent population. This process will be carried out participatively, involving municipal technical staff, educational centers, social entities, families, and, centrally, the children and adolescents of Aldaia themselves.
The plan will align with the Convention on the Rights of the Child, with regional and state guidelines on public childhood policies, and with the UNICEF Child-Friendly Cities model. With this initiative, Aldaia reinforces its commitment to a local governance model that promotes equal opportunities and the full exercise of children's and adolescents' rights.
