In Spain, local residents have engaged in protests regarding urban planning and housing issues. In Cádiz, members of Espacio Mujeres and neighborhood movements demonstrated at the City Council to demand social housing and criticize the administration’s handling of homelessness. 

In Tenerife, approximately 200 residents of El Pris in Tacoronte marched against a 1.5 million euro rainwater runoff management project proposed by the Cabildo de Tenerife. Protesters argue the plan is a temporary measure that fails to address the root causes of flooding, advocating instead for an alternative technical proposal.
