SOCIAL GROUP, 28th April 2011

Today we proceed as yesterday, with a first meeting early in the morning to keep clear our ideas. After this we continued with our field work, so we were driven to municipality of Mogán. We first stopped in Patalavaca looking for the Norwegian community. We found the Norwegian school near Arguineguín, to be precise in Aquamarina neighbourhood. We were told a bit how they are organized and we were suggested to go to Arguineguín for a meeting with the priest of the Norwegian church of Gran Canaria. We did not manage to talk to her today, but we made an appointment for tomorrow. We continued the field work in Mogán, where we spoke with the people from the main social club and officials, municipality workers, in order to get data that could help us to figure Mogán’s social structure for our upcoming presentation. We did not manage to get it, despite we will como tomorrow due to Mogán’s architect is going to give us the ongoing Master Plan. In the social club we got data about why and when this was established, which people are integrated there and how they include immigrants to their social activities. Finally, we had a brief interview with the Social Issues Office, who, among other things, told us how Norwegian community is cooperating with them, with the municipality. The Social Club for old people and the mayor, besides the priest, could not be localized.
