During the Project’s first year, the team has collaborated with, participated in and promoted
different actions all with the common objective of improving coexistence utilizing Salt’s
existing social structure fabric. These actions have sought not only to foster the relation-
ships between the residents and the resources available in the municipality, but also to
encourage encounters, mutual understanding, equality and participation.

ACTIONS ACCOMPLISHED
Community Garden: A community garden was planted in a downtown
neighborhood as part of a joint intervention with the ‘Casa d’Oficis de
Salt’, Salt 70, Area de Joventud, Area de Mediambient and the Centre
Obert infantil. The garden was planted in an abandoned lot. The har-
vested produce was donated to the Food Distribution Center (Càritas).
The main objective of the Garden Project is to create a community space
open to all and provide different associations and residents’ groups with
an opportunity to participate in tasks of organization, revitalization and
maintenance. The project was conceived as an effort to reclaim a space
for the neighborhood and the city. This space has become a nexus for
neighborhood and intergenerational interaction as well as a place where
entertainment and cultural activities can take place.
Monar Salt. Open Center for Audio-Visuals: Monar Salt is a project
developed to foster audio-visual creation and distribution. This project
seeks to encourage peaceful coexistence, dialogue and teamwork among
youths. The project was developed together with ‘La Fàbrica’, ‘l’Estació
Jove’ the City Hall and other Associations and youths from Salt. Monar
Salt has provided an opportunity to optimize technical and social re-
sources as well as offer a training program and new meeting grounds for
youths and other residents of the Community. The final project was
presented at an Audio-Visual Festival at the Salt Theatre last July 2011.
Time Sharing Bank: The Salt Time Sharing Bank was established taking
into account the current economic crisis and with a clear objective of
strengthening the community’s social fabric. This project facilitates the
exchange of services among different people as well as contributing to
the creation of a local network of support and mutual aid. The Time
Sharing Bank project encourages residents to get to know and trust one
another, and value individual abilities and know-how. Time is used as a
unit of exchange or currency. This Project was promoted by several
community groups: the Associació de Veïns Barri Vell, Associació del Barri
Centre, Associació Mou-te en Bici, Senecat and individual residents. The
Bank is open to all those who wish to participate.
Health Care Promotion: Several workshop sessions have been held with
Women’s associations in order to identify common needs and make
proposals to initiate preventative health care projects addressed to the
community as a whole. Various health care agents such as the CAP (Pri-
mary Health Care Center), the Hospital and Pharmacy “Jubero” have
participated in these projects that will be carried on into 2012.
Collaborations: Throughout the course of the year, the relationships and
collaboration among different technical resources and entities have been
improved. These include: the collaboration between The Oudiodial Asso-
ciation with the Massagran Library to promote La Festa del Llibre Gegant;
and the OPE for FiraArt. Our project has also supported activities orga-
nized by social entities and citizens’ groups that are open to the public
such as the community soccer tournament organized by the Almohajiren
Association and the participatory process organized by the Associació del
Barri Centre.
