Premios Ciudadanos
The Premios Ciudadanos and the Consejo Audiovisual y Digital Ciudadano (both non-profit associations) were started 25 years ago to recognize and share the work of institutions, companies, and individuals working on projects centered on sustainability. For the second time in the history of these awards, Ferrovial has received one of these prestigious recognitions.
Projects that are recognized must be able to provide an adequate response to the basic needs of institutions, companies, and residents themselves in economic, educational, technological, and cultural matters, in addition to offering solutions to operational, social, and environmental issues, as long as the main objective is improving quality of life for citizens.
Winners must also be bearers of and spokespersons for social, cultural, civic, and democratic values and hallmarks primarily within the framework of the award categories.
