The Sant Celoni City Council has unveiled a project to develop a Local Plan for the promotion of Catalan, a strategic tool that will define actions to enhance the language's presence and social use in the municipality.

During the session, the project to be driven by the Department of Linguistic Policy was presented. This initiative aims to create a Local Plan for the promotion of Catalan, a strategic tool designed to define the necessary actions to strengthen the presence and social use of the language in all areas of municipal life.
The Local Plan for the promotion of Catalan will serve as the roadmap guiding the municipality's linguistic policies in the coming years. The document will begin with a diagnosis of the current situation of the language in Sant Celoni and will subsequently establish clear objectives, defined lines of work, and concrete measures to encourage its use among citizens, entities, the commercial sector, businesses, and the local administration itself.
The plan's development will be carried out in a participatory and transversal manner, involving various municipal services and territorial stakeholders. This initiative will receive technical support and advice from the Consorci per a la Normalització Lingüística (CPNL).
Through this initiative, the Sant Celoni City Council reaffirms its commitment to promoting Catalan as a language of social cohesion, coexistence, and equal opportunities, fostering its daily use and presence in all aspects of local life.
