Pilar Bernabé has inaugurated the II Socioeconomic Forum of the Valencian Community organized by the Economic and Social Committee, where she has highlighted “the unprecedented investment of the Government of Spain in the C.Valenciana”. The delegate of the Government recalled that it is 12,000M€ that the current executive has allocated to the Comunitat to build “the future we deserve with more investments, more social shield, more housing, more sustainability and equality”. It has also highlighted the investment of €110M on the coasts of the Comunitat, of which €28M for the beaches in the south of the city of València; or the mobilisation of more than €6.400M in the Comunitat from the Next Funds.
The delegate has also highlighted the €200M invested by the Government in Tourism Sustainability Plans, while highlighting “the importance of this sector that has increased its workers in this autonomous community by almost 12% compared to last year”. At this point, he has encouraged reflection on the type of tourism model that the C.Valenciana “sustainable or everything is worth?” or on the nuclear debate “which should be overcome but whose reopening takes us back to the past leaving the future aside”. For all these reasons, he has encouraged us to “refocus the debate calmly and analyze the items that will lead us to a sustainable economic model.”
Bernabé has been convinced that Spain and in particular the C.Valenciana “are called to be leaders in the ecological transition and economic transformation” a mission that can be “carried out thanks to the extraordinary economic moment they are going through”. Thus, he has highlighted the employment figures “result of the Labor Reform” that has favored that “four out of 10 new jobs in Europe are generated in Spain”. In the C. Valenciana, as he recalled, affiliations have increased by 2.64% in the last year and the unemployment rate for Valencian women is the lowest in the last six years. The delegate pointed out that in these forums she “misses the participation of other administrations that prefer, in the face of new challenges, to look the other way.”
