Councillor for Social Services, Women and Equality, Fabiana Ibarra, has launched an awareness campaign which will run from today until November 25, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.

“We do not want this date to be just a commemoration, and that is how we transmit it throughout the year, developing intense work from the Department for prevention and information to the citizens,” explained Ibarra, continuing, “the program we have designed for this year aims for us to be aware of the road to be followed to end this scourge, which is education and prevention.”

Talks, debates, theatre, dance, sports activities, concerts, workshops, exhibitions are all lined up in the awareness schedule, including a workshop ‘For the right to a life free of gender violence’, carried out in collaboration with the University of Alicante.

There are also two exhibitions that will host the Virgen del Carmen Cultural Centre. The first one will be an exhibition of murals made by students from the different schools of Torrevieja and will be open between November 23 and 27. The other, entitled ‘I have no owner’ will take place between November 28 and December 11 and will be the work of the artist Diana Raznovich.
