This decision was made after a local assembly held this Tuesday at the Benetússer City Council, attended by nearly a hundred members and collaborators from the municipality. The meeting also highlighted the need to strengthen mobilizations through a network of alliances and promote new actions, as reported by the association this Thursday in a statement.
“"We are not seeing a deep review of emergency systems, nor serious planning for adaptation to extreme phenomena, nor structural measures that guarantee this will not happen again."
Furthermore, the association will study the situation of rental aid linked to the DANA for the year 2026 and will organize a new meeting focused on the territory and the taxation of aid in income tax returns.
The meeting in Benetússer, which served to gather proposals and concerns from attendees, is part of a cycle of local assemblies that the association has initiated to conduct a collective assessment prior to the annual assembly. The objective is to generate spaces for active listening, analysis, and debate to jointly prepare and design, with members and collaborators, the lines of action and future initiatives of the association.
The cycle of local assemblies will continue soon in municipalities such as Catarroja, Massanassa, and Paiporta, strengthening local implementation as a key tool to decide the strategy and collective work project, with the aim of truth, justice, memory, and security for the future, with the will that such negligent management of an emergency will not be repeated.
The meeting was held with the collaboration of the Fundació Horta Sud, the Benetússer City Council, Ecos del Agua, Guaix – Coordinadora pel Valencià de l’Horta Sud, and the CLER de Benetússer.
