The training will tour every corner of La Gomera to publicize a program articulated in ten axes of action and open to new citizen proposals through a QR code
Friday, November 13. Gomera Socialist Group (ASG) has started the electoral campaign for the General Elections on November 29 with the traditional hanging of posters, in which the party's candidate for the Senate for La Gomera, Yaiza Castilla, and the general secretary of ASG, Casimiro Curbelo, participated, along with organic officials, militants and sympathizers.
The candidate for the Senate, Yaiza Castilla, assured that she was facing this new stage “with great enthusiasm and great responsibility,” and highlighted precisely the participatory nature of the electoral proposal.
"We began an electoral campaign with great enthusiasm and also with great responsibility. We presented a program articulated in ten main axes, but, above all, an open program, in which everyone can participate and send us their proposals through the QR code that we have enabled," he stated.
Castilla explained that the contributions received can be incorporated into the work that he will carry out in the Upper House if he obtains the trust of the people of Gomero on November 29. “I am very excited to be able to lead the Gomera Socialist Group's candidacy for the Senate and I really want to work for all of you, if you give me your trust,” she said.
Ten axes to transfer the priorities of La Gomera to the Senate
The program with which ASG participates in these elections is structured around ten areas of action: fair taxation; dwelling; public services and equal opportunities; demographic challenge; connectivity; youth and talent; energy transition and sustainability; equality; solid public pensions; and culture and heritage.
A program open to contributions from citizens
ASG will complement these ten lines of action with a citizen participation process throughout the campaign. The program that will be distributed throughout the island includes a QR code through which anyone can directly send their proposals and suggestions.
In this way, the training presents the campaign not only as a journey to explain its commitments, but also as an active listening exercise in which neighbors can contribute to enriching the initiatives that are later transferred to the Senate.
Curbelo highlights the experience and trajectory of Castilla
For his part, the general secretary of the Gomera Socialist Group, Casimiro Curbelo, highlighted the experience and career of Yaiza Castilla and defended the importance of having a representative in the Upper House who knows first-hand the reality and needs of La Gomera.
"We started this electoral campaign by asking for the vote for our candidate, Yaiza Castilla. She is a person who has experience, who has a track record and who we need to continue defending the interests of the Gomeros in the Senate, to continue working for our society and to continue working for a better Canary Islands," he said.
