In addition, 4,602,990.27 euros are destined for the establishment of the Low Emission Zone in the city, and another 750,000 euros have gone to the Punta Europa Hospital as part of the program for modernisation of high-tech medical equipment.

The tourism sustainability destination also stands out in the Plan. The Commonwealth of Municipalities of the Campo de Gibraltar, with 2,500,000 euros, has been one of the beneficiaries thanks to its work towards contributing to the formulation of a new tourism model that places sustainability in its triple dimension: environmental, socio-economic, and territorial.

There are other projects with aid, such as those aimed at INDUSTRY and SMEs. More than 2,750 beneficiary companies of projects from the Recovery Plan, of which more than 2,700 are SMEs and beneficiaries of self-employed workers (2,482 from the digital kit program and 252 from the CERSA financial guarantee program).

There are also funds to achieve the complete universalisation of digital connectivity infrastructures, necessary to achieve sustainable development through complete digital transformation. More than 27,000 households and businesses in more than 35 municipalities in the province of Cádiz are already benefiting from the expansion of digital connectivity through the unique Broadband program.

Directly, citizens benefit from initiatives such as Renfe's transportation vouchers, the Minimum Vital Income, the 200-euro aid for inflation, the Youth Cultural Voucher, the Electric Social Voucher, Scholarships for students, and the Electric Social Voucher are some of them, with repercussions within the province of Cádiz and, therefore, in the Campo de Gibraltar.
