La Sevillana rompe años de silencio: “Aquí resistimos 14 años”
La comunidad de La Sevillana, en Cartagena, ha vivido una odisea alrededor de 14 años marcada por la ilusión, el engaño y una lucha incansable por la legalización de sus terrenos. Marta Reales, habitante y propietaria, y Javier Torres González, presidente de la Junta de Vivienda Comunal, relatan la compleja historia de un barrio que, tras años de invisibilidad y estigmatización, finalmente vislumbra la luz al final del túnel.
La Sevillana rompe años de silencio: “Aquí resistimos 14 años” The community of La Sevillana in Cartagena endured a 14-year ordeal of deception after purchasing land from a developer who did not own it, leading to a legal dispute that froze development. Despite facing stigma and a lack of basic services like adequate water and sanitation, the community’s persistence, coupled with the support of the Dumek Turbay administration and the Fundación Santo Domingo, has led to the legalization process. This legal recognition is expected to foster a sense of belonging, security, and improve living conditions for the residents.
