Fortunately, every week we read reports in the Spanish press of Cubans who arrive through the Arraigo Project with their entire family, to repopulate rural towns in the Iberian country. How can you apply?
According to the Burgos newspaper, the Arraigo Project, in collaboration with Sodebur, welcomed this April 5 the first two families to join the repopulation plan for the province of Burgos. A family from Cuba has settled in the town of Lerma, while another family from Valencia has settled in Castrojeriz, where they will dedicate themselves to the hospitality sector.
In total, ten new people have joined the Burgos community, taking a first step towards the revitalization of rural areas. A project that has taken hundreds of Cubans between 2023 and 2024 to their Spanish roots and to rural populations with a lack of inhabitants.
Carlos Gallo, head of the Burgos Promotion Society, describes the arrival of the first two families to the Burgos territory as “great news” as part of the Repuebla Plan. This fact not only confirms the potential of the plan, but can also act as a motivating element for the rest of the towns, generating a positive contagion effect.
Gallo, who began this project in February with hope, now feels renewed enthusiasm upon seeing the first results. The initiative represents a crucial step in the fight once morest depopulation and a boost for the social and economic development of the rural areas of Burgos.
