• The DANA that razed Valencia has unleashed social indignation due to institutional inefficiency and lack of leadership.
• Thousands of citizens are still helpless and without necessary assistance.
• The Government and the Valencian Community have been late to respond and activate the emergency measures necessary of the magnitude of the tragedy.
• The slow response has exacerbated the consequences of the catastrophe and intensified public anger.
• Social pressure has forced the authorities to mobilize more army contingents, a decision that should have been made in the early hours of the catastrophe.
• The State should adapt its catastrophe management tools to its proportions and operate transparently to regain the trust of the population.

Conclusion: The management of this crisis has made clear the lack of leadership and efficiency of the Government and Valencian Community. They've responded slowly, exasperating the population and exacerbating the impact of the tragedy. It is imperative that they learn from this and work to improve their response in future catastrophes.
