The strategic plan incorporates a local development agent, Estel Sleep.

The program aims to dynamize and execute policies and programs that promote economic promotion, together with other agents in the territory

Last December, the Servei d'Ocupació de Catalunya (SOC) of the Generalitat de Catalunya granted a subsidy of 36,000 euros to the City Council of La Bisbal d'Empordà for the hiring of an employment and local development agent with the purpose of carrying out the actions detailed in the II Strategic Plan of La Bisbal d'Empordà, Forallac, Cruïlles, Monells and Sant Sadurní de l'Heura, Corçà and Ullastret.

The local employment and development agent (AODL) program launched by the SOC aims to dynamize and execute policies and programs that promote economic promotion, together with other agents in the territory, through a socio-economic development that generates employment as integrated, equitable and sustainable as possible.

In this sense, during the year 2023, the II Strategic Plan for Local Development and Employment of the municipalities of La Bisbal d'Empordà, Forallac, Corçà, Ullastret and Cruïlles, Monells and Sant Sadurní de l’Heura was elaborated, which defines six intervention axes:

  1. Quality tourist model.

  2. Promotion of agri-food production.

  3. Promotion of the ceramic and artisan sector.

  4. Promotion of economic activity zones.

  5. Talent attraction and retention.

  6. Attention to people.

Now, thanks to the subsidy, there is a new technician, Estel Sleep, who will work on axes 2 and 4, thus reinforcing the economic dynamism of the 5 municipalities that are part of the plan. The technician has Torre Maria in La Bisbal d'Empordà and Nexes, the business incubator of Forallac, as work locations.

The Strategic Plan and the action plan can be consulted on the website of the City Council of La Bisbal d'Empordà.
