The director of the associate center of the Distance University in Dénia, Raquel Martí, has presented this Friday, accompanied by the deputy of Family and Citizenship, Mercedes Alonso, the conclusions of a study on the management of equality in the municipal administration commissioned by the Provincial Council. A study "with which one has wanted to know the real situation of this question and thus be able to respond to the main shortcomings posed by municipalities", said the provincial responsible.

The study has shown a growing interest in the adoption of measures that result in this objective, although it warns of the need to reinforce gender mainstreaming, coeducation and the training of municipal technicians.

Following a methodology that has included surveys in the 141 municipalities of the province, it has been detected, explained Martí, that the "equality public policies are in an initial state" as it shows that the 43% of the municipalities do not have Municipal Plans of Equality of Opportunities or that only one 25% has specific technicians in equality.

"It is true that equality has undergone a very positive evolution in the province, deeper in the large municipalities, but there is still a long way to go and more coordination between professionals and a mainstreaming in municipal management is required", said the director of the study, who added that, in addition, it is necessary to increase the economic and human resources allocated for this purpose. At this point, he added that the surveys show that an 50% of the municipalities of the province does not have an Equality Council and an 32% is shared.

For his part, Alonso highlighted the "The importance of public administrations betting decisively on this issue and actions that contribute to achieving real equality", something that necessarily happens "for coeducation, the involvement of society and a perspective where gender equality extends to all public action generating direct impacts on citizenship".

    I hope that the deputation publishes the subsidies that hundreds of associations of extreme left receive with the excuse of equality.
    These associations are tarnishing and trivializing the real needs of women and also stealing our money.
    They have 2 months left Fortunately.
