This project, ratified during the municipal plenary session, recognizes children as full citizens and proposes a comprehensive and preventive approach. It coordinates areas such as health, education, and urban planning to address children's needs holistically, with the goal of fostering physical and emotional health, ensuring educational equity, and promoting their active participation in the community life of Montblanc.
The strategy is structured around three fundamental pillars: emotional well-being and family support, transformative education and leisure time, and active participation and citizenship. Among the highlighted actions, the plan includes promoting sports and physical activity, supporting positive parenting, creating cultural projects, and strengthening the Municipal Children's Council as a key advisory body.
“"It is a transversal plan with a vocation for continuity, a firm commitment to the present and future of Montblanc. It is a strategic commitment to place childhood at the center. We want to guarantee rights with a comprehensive, preventive, and integrated vision."
Councillor Judit Pere defended the model, emphasizing that the municipal budget includes a 10,000 euro allocation for childhood to fund annual activities. Regarding participation, she stressed that children are a key part of the decision-making process, with the Children's Council serving as a platform for their proposals, which are collected and forwarded to the council departments to be converted into concrete actions.
For his part, Juanma Cabello, councillor for the PSC, expressed concern about the capacity of municipal departments to take on new functions without overload and questioned the degree of effective child participation. Anna Lafebre, councillor for Montblanc Progressa, emphasized the importance of local rootedness and gender perspective, although she noted the absence of explicit mention of responsible technology use and digital literacy education for children and youth.
The plan includes continuous evaluation, with annual monitoring and a final review in 2027, to ensure the effectiveness of the measures and adjust actions according to children's needs. The City Council assures budgetary commitment and the search for external funding for its implementation.
