Poble Nou de Benitatxell commemorates one more year the International LGTBIQ+ Pride Day. On June 28 and 29, the Department of Equality, Gender Policies and Diversity has scheduled a series of events to make sexual affective diversity visible and claim the rights of LGTBIQ+ people.
On Tuesday the activities will be aimed at the little ones with the storytelling 'Les meues dos mares mòmies' and a sheet metal workshop, which will take place from 11:00 on Raconet street. On Wednesday, the programming will take on a more formal tone with the conference 'Benitatxell with Pride: rights, diversity and democratic coexistence', which will begin at 19:00 p.m. on Llebeig Street and will feature a proud appeal, several presentations and a colloquium.
The proud appeal, by the City Council and the MACMA, will take a historical tour of diversity to this day. Then there will be the presentation 'Anti-discrimination law and prevention', with the participation of the LGTBI+ group 'VISIBLES' from Pego and Ernest G. Andujar, an OSCE-accredited trainer on diversity and Divers@ Police officer.
