Intercultural perspective in municipal tendering processes

Other actions in the rollout of the measure include:

  • Intercultural perspective for all subsidies.
  • New action plan for the BCN Antirumours Network, 2022-2026.
  • Collaboration with European projects, with training for municipal human resources, on aspects which define discrimination on the grounds of race, ethnicity and religion of young people, and discrimination against the Roma people.
  • Specific technical service to favour diversity within the City Council itself.
  • Communication guide with the intercultural perspective.
