The news of Begoña Aguado's passing has brought deep sadness to San Sebastián de los Reyes. Aguado, a resident of the municipality for decades, combined a notable professional career in research with a strong commitment to social causes, particularly in the defense of public health and education.
A Doctor of Science from the University of Oxford, her technical profile and independent judgment earned her recognition within the national scientific community. Her civic engagement extended to various local causes before she entered local politics.
In May 2023, Begoña Aguado joined the socialist candidacy for the municipal elections, ranking second on the list led by the then-mayor and PSOE candidate, Narciso Romero. After the formation of the current municipal corporation, she took office as a councilor in the opposition, actively participating in the debates of the San Sebastián de los Reyes City Council.
Her career combined scientific activity, participation in citizen movements, and the exercise of public responsibilities.
The void left by her passing marks a significant moment in the local politics of San Sebastián de los Reyes, where her figure will be remembered for the fusion of her scientific expertise and her dedication to public service.
