RTVC commits to raising awareness through:

This collaboration aims to leverage media platforms to engage young residents more actively in social and cultural initiatives, strengthening community bonds.
This partnership is part of the broader strategies outlined in Fuerteventura’s Youth Plan 2020-2025, which emphasizes youth participation and civic engagement. It also exemplifies efforts by regional authorities to foster local identity and cultural expression through accessible media.
The agreement clarifies that no financial exchanges are involved and sets a one-year term, with provisions for dispute resolution and legal compliance.
