The Canovelles City Council has presented a program of activities to be held from November 23rd to 26th to commemorate the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, under the slogan "Wings to fly free from violence".

The proposals aim to highlight the rejection of male violence and foster a more egalitarian society through institutional events and awareness-raising actions.
The program will begin on Monday, November 23rd, with "Veus Joves 25N" at the Centre d’Iniciatives Juvenils El Local, a participatory activity that will include a talk and the creation of a collective video.
The central day will be on November 25th. In the morning, in front of the City Council, the institutional event will take place with the hanging of butterflies, the reading of a manifesto, and a minute of silence in memory of victims. In the afternoon, a gathering will be held in Plaça d'Europa followed by a silent walk to Plaça de Núria Miralles under the slogan "Caminem juntes contra les violències masclistes" (Let's walk together against male violence).
At Plaça de Núria Miralles, the participatory action "Papallones de la memòria" (Butterflies of Memory) will take place, with the hanging of crochet and paper butterflies by Consciència’t. Subsequently, Isabel Recasens, director of the CAP of Canovelles, will read the manifesto.
The commemoration on the 25th will conclude with a micro-theater performance on toxic relationships in the social area of El Local, aiming to promote reflection and debate.
The activities will wrap up on Thursday, November 26th, with a youth workshop on rap creation from an intersectional perspective, focusing on exploring masculinities and fostering relationships based on respect and equality.
