Culture Committees
The Culture Committees are participatory bodies within the Communal Councils, created as spaces for the proposal, elaboration and implementation of cultural policies at the local level and within the community. Its members are responsible for promoting and supporting cultural activities, as well as the creation of libraries and culture houses and the professional, cultural and artistic preparation and training of the inhabitants of the community. They can also work in coordination with other Committees and with other centers, groups and cultural activities to promote social actions aimed at strengthening and safeguarding cultural heritage.
