The mayor of Las Rozas, José de la Uz, has met in Querétaro (Mexico) with his counterpart Felifer Macías to strengthen institutional ties and share experiences in urban development policies and quality of life.
The mayor of Las Rozas, José de la Uz, travelled to Querétaro (Mexico) to meet with the city's municipal president, Felifer Macías, in a meeting aimed at strengthening institutional collaboration between the two municipalities. The meeting took place at the BLOQUE Creative Innovation and Technology Centre, a space dedicated to creativity and technology, where both leaders exchanged experiences and good governance practices.
During the meeting, Macías highlighted that Querétaro and Las Rozas share a vision focused on orderly development, quality of life, peace, and stability. "This is Querétaro, a city that opens its doors to the world, that provides opportunities to its people," affirmed the municipal president, who stressed that international relations must translate into concrete benefits for citizens, especially for those in areas with greater needs.
"We have always sought for international relations to ensure that Querétaro families, people, even those from the areas with the greatest needs, can be the ones who access the opportunities."

For his part, José de la Uz acknowledged the leadership of the Mexican municipality and thanked them for their hospitality. The Rozas councillor expressed his interest in expanding bilateral cooperation through the exchange of experiences and good practices that promote the development and well-being of the inhabitants of both locations. "Las Rozas and Querétaro share similar values and challenges, and these types of alliances allow us to learn from each other," stated sources from the Las Rozas City Council.
The meeting is part of Querétaro's strategy to consolidate international alliances that contribute to the city's development, and for Las Rozas, it represents an opportunity to open up to innovative management models. The Las Rozas City Council has reported that this collaboration is part of its international openness policy to strengthen joint projects for the benefit of the population.
José de la Uz's visit to Querétaro comes in a context of growing interest from Madrid municipalities in establishing ties with Latin American cities. For the residents of Las Rozas, this agreement could translate into future cultural, economic, or tourist exchange programs, although specific projects have yet to be defined.
Both leaders agreed that the exchange of experiences will allow them to learn about successful governance models and adapt strategies that strengthen public policies, especially those aimed at expanding opportunities for families. "We want this alliance to be a bridge for mutual development," added sources from the Las Rozas council.
The Las Rozas City Council has not specified whether there will be a reciprocal visit from the municipal president of Querétaro to the Madrid locality in the coming months, but municipal sources assure that collaboration will continue and new avenues for cooperation will be explored.
