Hondarribia will work "expressly" on the Equality Plan to "advance the resolution of the conflict"
Municipal officials have said that a report prepared by Emakunde states that the Equality Plan must address this issue "because of the imbalances in participation".
In theSecond Equality Plan that the Hondarribia City Council will approve on Thursday, the theme of the Alarde will have a special place for the first time. It has been decided to give "specific treatment" to "advance the resolution of the conflict" and "recognize the violence suffered in defence of women's rights in favour of an equal show".
To report on the plan, representatives of the Municipal Government have appeared. Mayor Igor Enparan and Estitxu Urtizbere (both from the Abotsanitz group) and Deputy Mayor Garoa Lekuona (EH Bildu) have appeared before the media . They have said that a report by the Basque Institute for Women sets out the obligation to work on this issue.
Municipal representatives have stressed that the Alarde is a "deeply rooted tradition in Hondarribia, part of the identity of the people and of great social and emotional value ", while stressing that" there are debates about participation and gender roles "and that this is where the lines of action contained in the plan are framed:" Equality policies must act in all areas where there are inequalities, including in the cultural sphere ", explains Urtizberea.
Lekuona has also stressed that "whether we deal with this issue or not" is not "optional": "It is occupying a framework that requires it (the City Council). It is a clear position and also the law demands it. Social customs are not static; they evolve over time and will continue to do so. And that development must be compatible with the fundamental rights that we recognize today, including equality. "
