Neighbours can carry out procedures to facilitate remote settlement, renewal of documentation and speed up the granting of residency to foreigners. Training workshops and advice on Law No. 25,871 on Migration and electoral participation are also provided. To strengthen integration in host communities, the municipality promotes the development of social and cultural activities together with diaspora communities and organisations. Work is carried out through the entities, to support the customs, experiences and festivities of each country. The aim is for the neighbours of Esteban Echeverría to share the customs of their country and feel "at home". There have been Bolivian entries, meetings of Paraguayan residents, Spanish paellas, rice cultivation, among other activities. |
