The Federation of Municipalities of Catalonia (FMC) has awarded the 'Girl Zone' project by the Pineda de Mar City Council in recognition of its innovative public policies.

The General Assembly of the FMC, during the commemorative event for its 45th anniversary on October 9th, presented this special award. The prize highlights the council's contribution to the dissemination and exchange of innovative experiences among local governments, consolidating the Best Practices Bank as a key tool for improving municipal public services.
The 'Girl Zone' project, launched in the 2022-2023 academic year with the participation of 27 girls aged 12 to 16, has evolved to become integrated into the municipality's youth policies. The initiative also led to 'Girl Zone El podcast' on Ràdio Pineda, a space for young people's conversations and opinions.
