What does the AUTÒNO+ BARCELONA programme consist of?

Barcelona City Council, through Barcelona Activa, offers a grant of €300 to self-employed workers of Barcelona most affected by COVID-19, either because they have suffered a drop of more than 75% in their sales, or because they have had to close their establishment or business, with the aim that this can be complemented with grants offered by other administrations.
