In the coming months, the first calls for joint societies will be approved in the less residential regions of Buruntzaldea, Bajo Deba, Oarsoaldea, Tolosaldea, Alto Urola and Urola Kosta.

Withtheaim of "strengthening the care system", the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa has launched the  "Gipuzkoa Zainduz" initiative, a society that will be the "instrument of the Foral Government to promote the construction and adaptation of resources and infrastructures" in the territory, presented by the Deputy General, Eider Mendoza, the Deputy of Care and Social Policies.

They have said that the new instrument they have put in place stems from the "willingness to accelerate the strategic investments envisaged" in the 2024-2027 Strategic Plan of the Foral Government and the 2024-2030 Gipuzkoa Social Services Map, according to which thenumber of dependent elderly persons will increase by 26% by 2030. "Gipuzkoa will need 757 new residential places to maintain the current coverage by the end of the decade. "

The company "Gipuzkoa Zainduz" will be 100% owned by the Provincial Council, which will be the sole partner, with an initial contribution of EUR 51 million.

The presentation highlights that the new tool "encourages the area of care to be part of the process of transformation that the territory is undergoing" to"move towards a more humane and closer model" that replaces traditional care with a more personalized model of care, directly related to the environment and based on the autonomy and experiences of each individual.

In this regard, the new foral instrument aims to facilitate the creation of infrastructures adapted to this perspective, "promoting more personalized spaces: small units, individual rooms and shared spaces designed to facilitate coexistence and everyday life ".
