Càrcer City Council has launched the revitalization project for the Local Council for Children and Adolescents (CLIA) to encourage the active participation of minors in municipal decisions.

This initiative is funded by a 6,000 euro grant from the Provincial Council of Valencia, with support from the Department of Justice, Transparency and Participation of the Generalitat Valenciana and collaboration from Sequoia Pro.
The project begins with the creation of a Steering Group to coordinate activities. Simultaneously, a communication strategy will be deployed to raise awareness of the CLIA and promote the participation rights of children and adolescents in the town.
Over the coming weeks, council members will work on various initiatives. Planned activities include a participatory process to define the council's identity and an assessment of municipal spaces dedicated to children.
Finally, participatory workshops will be held within the educational community to foster a culture of participation, ensuring that the voices of young people are included in municipal policies that affect them.
