Getting the Business Incubator for Women of Cartagena to function at full capacity and meet the expectations placed on it, is one of the short and medium term objectives that Citizens has included in the female entrepreneurship section of its electoral program for the municipal elections.

The liberal party is detecting that the boom in female entrepreneurship that is taking place in the Region of Murcia and in Spain is not reaching Cartagena and its region, "we are not talking only about a regional or national trend but a natural evolution to reduce the wage gap and labor inequality that has to reach Cartagena and for that it is important that public administrations are up to the challenge, "says the spokesman of the Liberal Party, Manuel Padín.

The liberal plan goes through the development of several objectives: increasing resources and promoting the Business Incubator for Women to stimulate demand and fully satisfy the offer, "the latest data provided by the City Council was disappointing, only one person had submitted a application for the use of the nursery and was denied, we are convinced that this does not mean that there is no demand, but the PSOE Government has failed to promote these facilities and encourage our entrepreneurs.

On the other hand, Cs has committed itself to execute the agreement that it took ahead in the Plenary to include as a criterion of valuation in the adjudication and execution of the municipal contracts the nonexistence of salary gap according to the formula fixed by Eurostat and to promote the plans of equality in companies, especially in those that enjoy the most important public contracts in Cartagena, the concession companies that manage cleaning, parks and gardens, and water.

In addition, Ciudadanos will create municipal spaces to encourage research, technology and science among young people from Cartagena, with special attention to women who, despite the competence shown in the educational curricula, do not opt ​​to study scientific careers, "an anomaly that we are ready to correct, "says the local spokesman of Cs, Manuel Padín.

Citizens states that the great concern that exists in the academic world for the inclusion of women in the careers Stem (by the English acronym of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) or Steam (including Arts) is fully justified, "48 degrees in the Stem branches, women only have a majority presence in 11, the absence of women in these studies worsens equality statistics and reduces female labor insertion, and it is a situation that can only worsen dramatically because, according to all experts , the jobs of the future will pass through here, "says Padín, who sums up:" If the future employment has to do with professions with a deficit of women we have a serious problem at hand, the City of Cartagena must be a leading actor in this global movement to promote the interest of women and put an end to sexist stereotypes.
