Catalonia Regional Government

What Catalonia Regional Government does

The Generalitat de Catalunya is the institution of self-government of Catalonia, a regional government entity headquartered at the Palau de la Generalitat in Barcelona, Spain. Founded in 1350, it operates under the Spanish Constitution and the Statute of Autonomy of Catalonia, exercising devolved powers in education, healthcare, culture, and economic development. Its core service delivery is funded through public taxation rather than commercial pricing, and it does not generate revenue from product sales. The Parliament of Catalonia functions as its legislative branch.

The Generalitat operates an extensive portfolio of digital portals and physical service channels aimed at Catalan citizens and international stakeholders. Core portals include catalangovernment.eu, web.gencat.cat, govern.cat, and president.cat, supplemented by specialized services for tourism (catalunya.com), investment attraction (catalonia.com), education (studyincatalonia.gencat.cat), language learning (llull.cat), and EU advocacy (europaencatala.eu). A network of international delegations — including offices in Brussels and Los Angeles — and a consular hub extend its distribution and diplomatic reach globally. Partnerships span European institutions, the MCAP climate action program, and the RaDAR-PPI consortium on antimicrobial resistance. In April 2026, the Government of Catalonia launched its AI 2030 Strategy in Brussels, signaling a new strategic priority around ethical and competitive AI. Core technology underlying the Generalitat's service delivery is not publicly disclosed.
