'The Mayor Responds' is an annual gathering organized by the Catalonia Journalists' Association, allowing accredited journalists to engage directly with the mayor on current municipal issues. Following a speech by Mayor Jaume Collboni, four journalists will have the opportunity to ask questions in-person, while the Dean of the Association, Joan Maria Morros, will also present queries submitted by members via email. This event fosters transparency and accountability in local governance, as it creates a direct dialogue between the media and local government leaders. The event can also be streamed live via Beteve, the Journalists' Association website, and through official streaming links, allowing for broad community participation and engagement. This mechanism not only promotes knowledge sharing about municipal affairs but also emphasizes the importance of journalistic inquiry in a democratic society.
