Residents of Sandy Ground questioned the Minister of Overseas on cultural policy with regard to young people, notably noting that the cultural center of their neighborhood and the cinema had still not been rebuilt since Irma. The reconstruction of these two buildings being the responsibility of the Collectivity, we took advantage of the news last Thursday to question the President on the main projects that will be carried out by the end of the year in the field of culture.
“Handing over an association house to Sandy Ground, Grand Case and the Orleans district is a necessity. We originally wanted to include the Sandy Ground MJC project in the convergence contract, but it was not retained. We are considering including it in the 2021-2027 European operational program, ”he explained, adding that a meeting on the OP had taken place the day before.
The president also recalled that the COM subsidizes neighborhood associations to the tune of 3 million euros. “It is a considerable sum directly injected into the associative fabric to precisely set up social, sporting and cultural activities for the youth and the inhabitants of the district. Sandy Ground associations are, for the most part, subsidized by the Collectivity ”, he commented.
"The animation of the districts is essential and the Collectivity must be able to propose actions to occupy the youth", he conceives. And to list the operations proposed during the long holidays: sports tickets and August pen, the airy center set up by the CTOS. (soualigapost.com)
