The President of the Consell thanks the Confederation of Cooperation and Solidarity Funds for its work on its 30th anniversary
Llorenç Galmés stressed the importance of the Confederation of Cooperation Funds, which this year celebrates its 30th anniversary, and explained that ‘it has consolidated itself as a space for consensus in the field of municipal cooperation, as it represents more than 1,000 municipalities’.
The president stressed the Consell de Mallorca’s commitment to international cooperation and reaffirmed his support for the initiatives of the Fons Mallorquí de Solidaritat i Cooperació. ‘In the Consell we will continue to promote actions that strengthen solidarity and collaboration with countries in vulnerable situations, as we believe in the importance of working together to build a fairer world,’ said Galmés.
Mallorca, through the Fons Mallorquí, is hosting this year’s Ordinary General Assembly of the Confederation of Cooperation Funds of the Spanish State, which reinforces its role as a reference in decentralised cooperation. This meeting has been an opportunity to reaffirm the commitment of all participants to municipal cooperation, a model of solidarity that has proven to be effective in the implementation of projects around the world.
