The Forum of Cities in an initiative of the Municipality of

Fuenlabrada. Its main objective is to create a meeting place to

exchange experiences and innovative projects aimed at
defining a model city more and more in line with the changing
needs and interests of citizens.
In this sixth edition, we propose a debate on social and
economic transformations that are occurring and their impact
on relations between Europe and emerging countries.
Globalization and economic crises have profoundly changed
international relations. Countries like China, Brazil, India,
Russia and South Africa have entered a strong economic power
in the international arena and have an ever more crucial
participation in the global production, trade and investment.
So much so that today can be said to have become a key
determinant of global prosperity, consolidating a greater
dispersion of economic power.
For its part, the European Union, through the initiative "Europe
2020", also wants to build a new economic model that
promotes fair social and territorial cohesion, based on
knowledge and innovation, sustainability, employment and
integrated growth.
From my point of view, it is necessary that we promote a
strategic, economic and political partnership which can take
advantage of the opportunities that this new situation offers
us to build a more balanced and fairer society.
As shown the economic crisis, the global changes are reflected
in ever-growing in the municipalities and therefore greater
impact on our daily lives. So it is so important that, from the
cities, we try to participate in the design and implementation
of this new model of international relations.
And as always happens at the local level, no progress is
possible in any way without the involvement of the citizens. I
would therefore invite very special
all the citizens of
Fuenlabrada to participate in the discussions taking place
during these days in our city.
