Exciting Opportunities for Youth: The “Actívate” Program in Fuerteventura
The Cabildo de Fuerteventura is buzzing with energy as it opens the registration window for the second phase of its innovative program, “Actívate.” This initiative is designed specifically for young people aged 12 to 30, providing a series of engaging and free leisure and sports activities throughout the month of August.
A Youth-Centric Initiative
Promoted by the Ministry of Youth, “Actívate” aims to offer appealing and healthy alternatives for the leisure time of youth in various municipalities, including Puerto del Rosario, Gran Tarajal, and Corralejo. This program not only seeks to entertain but also to create a vibrant community atmosphere that encourages interaction among young people.
What Activities Are on Offer?
Kicking off the program on August 8 in Puerto del Rosario, participants will have the opportunity to experience an exhilarating day of karting. This activity promises both thrill and education, as it includes a session on safe driving practices. Following this exciting start, on August 21, Gran Tarajal will host a lively session featuring inflatable giant foosball and bumper ball—perfect for those looking to engage in friendly competition. The program will culminate on August 29 in Corralejo with a visit to a water park, offering a refreshing way to close out the month.
Encouragement from Local Leaders
Adargoma Hernández, the Councillor for Water, Education, and Youth, has been vocal in encouraging the local youth to take part in these experiences. He emphasizes the goal of the program: to provide activities that resonate with their interests, foster community spirit, and promote healthy entertainment options. His message is clear: don’t miss out on these unique opportunities to connect and engage with peers.
In support of this initiative, Lola García, the President of the Cabildo de Fuerteventura, has highlighted the importance of delivering high-quality leisure offerings. She stresses that these activities are accessible and spread throughout the island, ensuring that youth participation happens in a safe and enjoyable environment.
