The Riells i Viabrea City Council established the Equality Commission on November 5th, a new citizen participation body tasked with promoting, coordinating, and monitoring actions outlined in the 2026-2029 Local Equality Plan.

The creation of this commission stems from a participatory process that began in June with an open meeting for citizens at the Centre Cultural La Casa Nova de Can Plana. Since then, internal operating rules have been defined, and a dedicated space has been set up on the Decidim digital platform to facilitate transparency and citizen engagement.
The Commission includes municipal and citizen representation, comprising the Councillor for Equality, the Municipal Equality Technician, professionals from Basic Social Services, and four local residents involved in promoting equality.
This forum will enable collaboration between municipal representatives, professionals, and citizens to evaluate ongoing actions, identify new needs, and propose initiatives to advance equality within the municipality.
By establishing this body, the Riells i Viabrea City Council reaffirms its commitment to integrating equality across all areas of municipal action, fostering citizen involvement.
