CALVIÀ COMMEMORATES 25 N INTERNATIONAL DAY FOR THE ELIMINATION OF VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN
The slogan of this year's poster #RompLaCadena wants to support the work that Feminisme a l'escola does to prevent sexist violence from the grassroots
Calvià Town Hall commemorates on 25th November, International Day for the Elimination of Violence towards Women, with a series of activities and a central act that will take place on Wednesday in the Town Hall building, of Desire, Rejection and Remembrance of the women murdered in 2020 by their partners or ex-partners, where a minute's silence will not be observed, but as it is done in every act of this type in Calvià, people shout very loudly against this scourge.
This year the motto that has been chosen for the 25 N poster is #RompLaCadena, in which Calvià Town Hall wants to pay tribute and show recognition and support for the work that Feminisme a l'escola has done to prevent sexist violence at grassroots. As every year, the events organised by the High Schools of the municipality that join Feminisme a l'escola will be supported, with the presence of councillors from the municipal government team to these activities.
Theatre will also be present on this International Day for the Elimination of Violence towards Women, through the theatre play 'Casa', by Catalina Florit, Maria Rosselló and Maria Bauçà, which will take place tomorrow Tuesday 24th November at the Santa Ponça library at 7 p.m. On Saturday 28th, at the Peguera Auditorium, Agnès Mateus and Quim Tarrida will present 'Rebota, rebota y en tu cara explota'.
Calvià Town Hall has also organised a series of online conferences on Women and Health that began on 5th November. On 24th November, Andrea Alcoverro will talk about 'Sexo Sentido'; Carme Valls, on 'Women, health and power', on 1st December, and Carmen Orte will give a talk on 'Women and drugs', on 17th December.
Finally, on 17th November, the Calvià University Centre (CUC) offered, electronically, information on the Professional Training for the Promotion of Gender Equality and the Master of Equality Policies and Prevention of Gender Violence, in an informal space where young people explained first-hand their experiences in these studies and work environments, to students.
