The city of Zaragoza is preparing to celebrate the achievements of its Hispanic American community with the launch of the inaugural ‘Premios Latir Hispano.’ This initiative aims to highlight the contributions and impact of the approximately 77,000 Hispanic Americans living in Zaragoza, recognizing their vital role in enriching the city’s social, cultural, and economic landscape.
The ‘Premios Latir Hispano’ will be bestowed for the first time on November 25, 2024, during a ceremony at the Salón de Recepciones del Ayuntamiento de Zaragoza. The awards will honor excellence in five distinct categories: emprendimiento (entrepreneurship), arte (art), educación (education), and gastronomía (gastronomy). This honors the diverse contributions made by Hispanic Americans across various sectors, effectively showcasing their integral role in the fabric of Zaragoza.
Among the notable nominees is Cristian Álvarez, the Argentine goalkeeper for Real Zaragoza, representing the wide range of fields in which Hispanic Americans are excelling. Their influence can be seen across a spectrum of industries, further enriching the community and local culture.
The establishment of the ‘Premios Latir Hispano’ marks a significant gesture by the city of Zaragoza to acknowledge the accomplishments of its Hispanic American residents. By celebrating their achievements, these awards not only honor individual success stories but also underscore the valuable contributions of the community to Zaragoza’s rich cultural heritage and economic vitality.
