Overview
- Ens Uneix has steered a Diputación de València commitment of roughly €200,000 to keep key AVL initiatives going across 2025–2026, with technical terms still being finalized for a presentation expected in September.
- The Consell led by the PP with Vox reduced the AVL’s overall budget from €3.9 million to €2.9 million and slashed operating funds from €897,370 to €50,000 for 2025, constraining the academy’s statutory activity.
- The financial squeeze has already prompted cancellations such as the Premi Carme Miquel and cuts to academic allowances, prompting a manifesto signed by hundreds of writers defending the institution.
- PSPV and Compromís deem the provincial plan insufficient and a political cover for the Consell’s cuts, urging that concrete support be written into the 2026 provincial budget.
- Instead of a subsidy barred to a statutory body, the province would directly deliver projects such as comic reprints, Escriptor de l’Any activities and school arts outreach, with the FVMP potentially taking on some tasks.
