The initiative, entitled "Community Strengthening and Sustainable Management in the Chinandega Watersheds," is being developed in coordination with public institutions and municipal governments, as highlighted by Friends of the Earth in a press release. Specifically, the project is being implemented in the Tecomapa and El Arenal-El Ubuto hydrographic units of the Río Negro sub-basin and benefits rural communities in the municipalities of Somotillo and San Francisco del Norte. The project is funded by the Government's Directorate General for Immigration and Development Cooperation and continues the work carried out since 2023 in the same area with projects to boost local capacities in the face of climate change and pressure on water resources. The initiative aims to strengthen community leadership and water governance, promoting the active participation of local leaders in decision-making regarding water use and conservation. The initiative will directly benefit 185 people, half of whom are women, from 13 rural communities. It will also promote sustainable agricultural practices such as biointensive gardens, the use of improved seeds, and silvopastoral systems. </p>]]></description>

Sánchez, who is also the island institution's Minister of Social Welfare, has criticized the Spanish government's failure to report "either on the distribution of minors from the Canary Islands to the Balearic Islands or on what has happened with regard to asylum seekers."</p>]]></description>

In the statement, they explained that the meeting, held on Monday in Sineu, sought to express "the grave concern, not to say alarm, caused by the media coverage of the marches" and that the public broadcaster of the Balearic Islands Radio and Television (BRT) "failed to fulfill its purpose of guaranteeing freedom of expression and the right of citizens to receive independent information."</p>]]></description>
