A group of students from the Language Center of Casa Árabe in Madrid has sent a letter to the mayor of the capital, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, in which they request a meeting to “explore solutions” to prevent the eviction of the institution from the Escuelas Aguirre, where it has been headquartered for 20 years.

Almost 800 schools and institutes in the Community of Madrid still do not know if they will have English assistants in their classrooms this new school year. “The Community of Madrid announced its own conversation assistant program to try to resolve those who missed the deadline to apply for the central government’s subsidy. To date, with the new school year started, there is no explanation beyond the headline from the regional administration at the end of last school year,” says María Carmen Morillas, president of Fapa Francisco Giner de los Ríos, with more than 1,000 federated associations.
What would the first Valencian be like? Gustavo Zaragoza has imagined the reality of that Neanderthal whose remains were found in a cave and is considered the oldest documented human in our territory. This is one of the 101 short stories that as many Valencian authors – or related to the Comunitat – have contributed to Editorial Vinatea (a foundation that donates its profits to charitable causes), about 101 Valencian characters who, readers will judge, can be considered heroes, villains, or perhaps both depending on the perspective from which they are viewed.

It is not a made-up story, although it catches your attention when you read it: one of the people affected by the closure of the century-old Marie Claire plant in Vilafranca del Cid, in Els Ports, ended up coming down from their village every day to work at the Importaco almond factory in La Vall d’Alba, in La Plana Alta, which is now also closing after the spectacular fire last May. “What happened with Importaco has been a disaster,” explains Javier Ferreres, UGT-PV FICA general secretary in the Castellón regions. “Here we have felt disheartened. Meetings have been held, yes, but nothing has been achieved. Just like with Marie Claire, nothing was achieved but there were gestures, here nothing,” he emphasizes, jumping from one closure to another, weaving the course of a labor market, the Castellón one, which is especially conditioned by geography, but also by communications and infrastructure.

The construction of the new Cal Maiol school institute, in the former Can Batlló factory site in the La Bordeta neighborhood of the Sants-Montjuïc district, has uncovered a section of the Infanta canal, built between 1817 and 1820. This hydraulic infrastructure, originating in Molins de Rei, transported water from the Llogretat river to irrigate agricultural lands and was also used for industrial purposes in the Baix Llobregat area, L’Hospitalet, and the south of Barcelona. The canal, just over 17 kilometers long and financed with private capital, was inaugurated in 1819 by Infanta Luisa Carlota de Borbón.
