Just in time for the Christmas holidays, the city of Calpe has published a poster entitled "What to give away", which gives advice on which toys to avoid and which to buy in order to promote an egalitarian society.
In this sense, it reminds us of the importance of play for the emotional and social development of children, since through this activity they learn to respect the world they live in and the people who live in it, as well as to play on an equal footing and build relationships of affection and love.
The plenary session of the Calpe Town Council today dealt with the protection of the last unspoiled land on the coast of Calpe, a plot of land in the Urbanización Manzanera, located directly on the coast, of approximately 10,000m2 with a buildable area of 1.2%.

Andreu Alfaro's sculpture "Cosmos 62" returned a few months ago to Calpe to be located again in the northern access to the municipality. This move culminated a long negotiation between the Town Hall and the IVAM by which the Museum ceded the sculpture for exhibition in Calpe and the Alfaro family ceded to the IVAM two sculptures to replace Cosmos 62.
