Regional Government Strengthens Ties with the Madeiran Diaspora in Valencia

The Madeiran Social Center of Valencia was the stage for an initiative by the Regional Government of Madeira aimed at reinforcing the bonds with Madeiran emigrants in the Spanish city. The meeting sought to value traditions, promote interculturality, and consolidate the role of this community in the life of the Autonomous Region.

Meeting at the Madeiran Social Center

The session took place in an institution that, besides serving as a place for social interaction, has historically committed to preserving the cultural identity of Madeirans abroad. With representatives of the regional executive present, ways to support local projects and reinforce cultural presence among new generations were discussed.

Strategy and Objectives

  • Strengthen social and cultural ties between Madeira and its diaspora;
  • Encourage the participation of emigrants in regional dynamics;
  • Promote exchanges of experiences and contacts that benefit both communities;
  • Value the intangible Madeiran heritage among diverse audiences.

This strategy is part of a broader plan to consolidate relations with communities abroad, recognizing the decisive contribution of emigrants to the economic and social development of the region.

Future Perspectives

Although no detailed timelines for new initiatives were announced, the meeting in Valencia symbolizes a concrete step in the commitment to maintain a continuous presence alongside emigrant communities. The Regional Government thus reinforces its commitment to valuing and supporting Madeirans across borders.
