During this Friday morning, the mayor of Concordia, Francisco Azcué, received the Minister of Human Development of the province of Entre Ríos, Verónica Berisso. The meeting with the work teams was held in the Mayors' Hall of the Municipality of Concordia, led by Francisco Azcué and the provincial official. The minister highlighted the “Relevar” program.
In addition, the vice mayor of Concordia Magdalena Reta de Urquiza, the Secretary of Human Development of the Municipality of Concordia Sebastián Arístide, and the Undersecretary of Social Development, Roberto Niez, among others, were present.
TERRITORY AND COORDINATED ACTION
The central focus of the meeting was for Minister Berisso to convey Governor Rogelio Frigerio's message to continue and deepen joint work through the exchange of actions, approaches, and programs.
Furthermore, during the meeting, there was an in-depth discussion on the dissemination and exchange of qualitative and quantitative data that has been generated following the implementation of the "Relevar Project" in the most vulnerable areas of Concordia.
AGAINST WELFARE DEPENDENCY
After the meeting, in dialogue with the press, Azcué highlighted the official's presence, as “this is not an isolated event; we work permanently and the team is truly one".
As the mayor expressed, "this has been the instruction given to us by our governor and we have followed it". In that sense, he recalled that in Concordia "with the Relevar program, there is a very important territorial approach, since we have started by embracing the community in the most vulnerable neighborhoods".
Azcué insisted that we have been "investing many resources and working in the territory with families, modifying this welfare-dependent paradigm".
"We want to break those chains of welfare dependency; we are bringing tools to those people so they can be part of the system, so they can move forward, so they can develop a life project, and those transformations are being seen; we do it every day in different neighborhoods", he remarked.
THE MINISTER HIGHLIGHTED THE “RELEVAR” PROGRAM
For her part, Berisso contextualized the visit to Concordia within the "tour that this Ministry is carrying out throughout the province".
The goal is to visualize "how we can align with this Municipality, everything it is carrying out, in order to address and make State resources much more efficient", she added.
According to the provincial official, "we need to know the reality of each locality in order to solve problems, because if we hide or do not know the figures regarding the implications of each issue, we are lying to ourselves and not focusing on what we should".
Finally, the minister congratulated Azcué "and the entire team he has in Development, who have undertaken these surveys that will allow us to know, plan, and understand what the most prevalent problems are in one neighborhood or another".
"The Province also wants that; it wants numbers. When we talk about violence we want numbers, when we talk about Childhood we want numbers, and that is why we come to see in the territory if there is something we can implement from the ministry and how we can help", concluded Berisso.
