The Department of Equality of the City of Cartagena has held this morning, Friday November 29, a conference against sexist violence, entitled 'Walking together makes us strong'.

The objective of these is to contextualize sexist violence from the perspective of diverse and racialized women and propose new lines of action in order to combine positions, speeches and forces to generate new socio-political spaces that include intersectional and diverse axes, which raise awareness about these violent acts.

Subsequently, there has been a round table 'How do we be affected by sexist violence and proposals for action', where the PhD in Migration Studies and anti-racist and decolonial militant, Salma Amazian, the Bachelor of Political Science and Sociology and expert in gypsy feminism have participated , Sara López, the Bachelor of Science in Communication UNAM and activist for the rights of Trans Women, Sabrina Sánchez, the educational adviser, writer, actress and cultural manager and community feminist anti-racist anti-patriarchal, Julia Castillo and the community of Afro-descendant women- Black and radicalized Spanish speakers, Afroféminas.
