25N: Unity between institutions will eradicate violence against women
'Together' is the simple motto chosen this year by the Ministry of Equality for the 25N campaign, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. This day seeks to call for inter-institutional and intergenerational unity in the fight against sexist violence.
In relation to this inter-institutional unit, Fraternidad-Muprespa joins, once again, the dissemination actions of this day, to draw attention to the necessary eradication of this pandemic.
This day seeks to honor women victims and survivors of sexist violence, as well as those who have fought this scourge, for example the first associations to help victims. Fortunately, since these groups emerged, social awareness has brought numerous advances, for example, that companies also consider measures to protect workers who are victims of this violence.
In the case of Fraternidad-Muprespa, materializes through its III Equality Plan, which includes a battery of actions to help victims of gender violence, through the necessary support to cope with their situation. Starting next year, the current plan will continue in the IV Equality Plan.
The campaign slogan is also the title of a short documentary which seeks to impact society about the path taken, the legislative and social milestones in the fight against gender violence and emphasizing what remains to be done.
The testimonies of eight women, from survivors of gender violence, to professionals in the sector, institutional representatives and activists, the work appeals to unity in the face of denialist messages that try to deny data as compelling as that almost one in three women, at some point in their lives, have suffered sexual violence.
He does it with powerful testimonies and phrases among which we highlight the following:
Violence is born from inequality
We have done nothing to suffer this violence. It is not our responsibility nor our fault
We suffer violence for being women, just for the fact of being women.
We want each other alive and free
Denying sexist violence is executing it again
Those who will come must grow free and those of us who are here want to live free.
