An initiative with multiple activities
Xàtiva is preparing for a dynamic celebration of International Women’s Day with rich and varied programming. The Councilor for Equality and Inclusive Policies, Amorós Amor, emphasized the importance of this initiative, which seeks not only to celebrate, but also to make the voice of the fight for gender equality heard.
Charitable concert and community activities
One of the most anticipated events is the solidarity concert scheduled for March 6, which aims to raise money for those affected by the Dana. This activity, organized by the Municipal Council of Women, will have performances of the Valencian Rondalla ‘Va de women’ and other local artists, offering an opportunity to enjoy the music while contributing to a significant cause.
8M manifestation: a collective voice
On March 8, the city will host the traditional manifestation organized by the Women’s Council, which will begin at the Women’s House and will conclude in the Alameda Jaume I. This manifestation, which will include the participation of various local groups, seeks to unite voices to claim the rights of women and foster their visibility in society.
Educational and cultural activities
In addition to festive activities, the program includes a series of educational events, such as the III Xàtiva Educadora Meeting, which will take place on March 7 with the slogan ‘8M. We were, we are and we will be feminists. ‘ There will also be art therapy workshops and various exhibitions, including the XVI exhibition women painters from Xàtiva.
Promotion of creativity and literature
The 1st Literary Contest ‘Letters to essential women’ is another of the prominent initiatives that seeks to foster literary creativity and reflection on the importance of women in society. With prizes of 500 euros for both categories, this competition is a great stimulus for participation.
Sports and conciliation initiatives
The world of sports will also play a key role in celebrations, with a day of orientation to the Les Pereres sports center, as well as a march of orientation for equality. In addition, the City Council has announced the return of the conciliatory school of Fallas, which seeks to facilitate family conciliation during the festivities.
Reflection and Commitment to Equality
This program not only seeks to celebrate the successes achieved in the struggle for equality, but also wants to be a space to reflect on the challenges that are still to be faced. The Councilor Amorós emphasized that it is essential that the community remain united in the fight for gender equality and that each activity contributes to this cause.
