Financial aid to guarantee basic food supply
2026-03-27 • No comments • • City
Social emergency financial aid is not just welfare benefits. They form part of the benefits implemented by the social protection system to overcome situations of social difficulty. In accordance with the provisions of Law 11/2003 on Social Services, these economic benefits, together with the techniques and materials, will be the actions carried out to achieve, re-establish or improve their welfare.
Based on data from the National Statistics Institute's Living Conditions Survey, it is estimated that 1% of the inhabitants of the municipality of "cannot afford a meal of meat, chicken or fish at least every two days", some 32,000 people. If we take into account that less than 14,000 people receive the Minimum Income of Insertion, we see that the population that cannot afford a basic diet is more than double that which receives economic aid from the Autonomous Community. This shows that the Community's aid does not reach all the people who need it either.
In recent years, night-time queues of people waiting to pick up waste from supermarkets have become commonplace in working-class neighbourhoods. New neighbourhood food collection and distribution networks have also emerged, a clear symptom of the inadequacy of public policies and the overflow of traditional NGOs.
We consider that Participatory Budgets can be an opportunity to reach objectives of coverage of needs not reached until now, and to offer a definitive support to people and families that do not reach their autonomy and well-being because the existing aids are not sufficient.
Our proposal consists of fully allocating the 30 million euros of the Participatory Budgets to an economic aid programme to eradicate food poverty in the city. This would mean contributing 0.6% of the City Council Budget to satisfy a basic need of 1% of the population, the most vulnerable.
We invite you to massively support this proposal to eradicate this social stigma and as a way of demonstrating to Public Administrations that what citizens demand in the first place is that basic human rights be guaranteed.

The population is increasing in age and not all older people have places to go with specific help. Especially municipal day centres for Alzheimer's where professionals could help stimulate them to be less sad and alone at home.
Pedestrianization of streets with narrow and impracticable sidewalks
2026-03-27 • No comments • • West district
The object of this proposal is to pedestrianize those streets of the district whose narrow sidewalks are in practice impracticable. In particular, the proposal refers to streets with sidewalks of 1m or less in width.
Among other problems, neighbors and pedestrians are forced to share the roadway with vehicles and sidewalks are inaccessible to people with disabilities. Coexistence is sometimes made even more difficult by the fact that these streets (often separated from the main roads) are used for loading and unloading illegally and outside the areas set aside for this purpose.
Remodelling of the central square
2026-03-27 • No comments • • East district
The residents of the square want a reform of the square that makes it greener more colorful and more of all neighbors eradicating bad habits there. we also want the square to be more sustainable even placing triangular sails that provide shade in summer and water mist to cool the area. we also want more trees and cultural alternatives such as theater and puppets some solidarity market and even the possibility of giving a concert with unidirectional speakers. We are open to any suggestion or idea from any of the neighbors of the district.
Sustainable social economy project
2026-03-27 • No comments • • North district
It is proposed the creation of a market where neighbors can exchange objects (barter), would not be a selling market, nor with the existence of donations, nor would there be any profit, only exchange of objects without the presence of money. And in order to do so, it is requested that part of the public space in the Children's Park be adapted with the urban furniture necessary to make this market where barter can be carried out between the neighbours.
The necessary urban furniture would be tables, benches and a closed space to store materials that will be used in the barter market.
This proposal is created due to the lack of public spaces destined to the neighborhood meeting, to improve the social economy of the neighborhoods and to continue with the work that the collectives and the neighbors of the district of Chamartín had been doing in the barter market that was carried out in the park of Gloria Fuertes.
The estimated value of investment in this proposal would be around € 5000.
Public playroom
2026-03-27 • No comments • • West district
A public playroom is needed for children and babies in the District so that they can play days of rain, cold, or very hot. Currently, the only options are private, scarce and expensive. In addition, there are almost no public (or private) spaces appropriate for babies in their first year of life to develop their motor skills.
It is proposed to create a comfortable, warm, inclusive and accessible space, where we can spend time with our children and share with other families. A public space could be set up to become a playroom with a wide access timetable. In its interior and exterior zones, children will be able to socialize, play and participate in activities, babies will be able to move freely in a safe place; and their mothers and fathers will have zones to exchange experiences, form themselves, organize workshops, weave networks and propose cultural activities for girls and boys.
