Also present were councilors Juan José Rodríguez and Rubén González (La Oliva), Rosa Rodríguez (Puerto del Rosario), and América Soto (Antigua).

On the other hand, the project is geared towards generating employment on the Island, facilitating the job placement of 37 unemployed individuals registered at the employment offices in Fuerteventura.

‘El Cabildo, actúa 2025’, which will run until January 12, 2026, is co-financed by the own funds of the island institution and the Canary Islands Development Fund (FDCAN).
