WOMEN’S ASSOCIATION OF VIVER: TOGETHER WE GROW!

WOMEN’S ASSOCIATION OF VIVER: TOGETHER WE GROW!

From the mid-20th century onwards, numerous women’s associations emerged across Spain, organised and united by shared interests. They were known as “Housewives’ Associations” and were created under the influence and ideology of the Women’s Section of the Falange, which promoted training in domestic skills and the promotion of values traditionally assigned to women. These organisations functioned as meeting points where women shared knowledge, skills and creativity, participated in public life and collaborated within their communities.

When a group of people share the same passion and a deep affection for their town, initiatives as special as the creation of Club Deportivo ViverRun come to life.

Second Conference: Reading is a right! Viver to read

Second Conference: Reading is a right! Viver to read

Report on the ‘Reading is a right!’ conference in ViverAsk, affirm, exclaimViver, 21 June, twelve-four in the morning. Today, or rather yesterday, summer began. Outside, the white waters have stopped flowing. Or perhaps I have stopped listening to them. Twelve-six, twelve-seven. I feel the rough texture of the ground on the soles of my feet and realise that this is the first time all day that I have been aware of that part of my body. I have hardly walked today; all my effort has been concentrated at the other end: in my head, which has been busy taking in, assimilating, noting down and summarising what has been said here, during the second ‘Reading is a right’ conference. I realise that I only thought about my feet (which I didn't feel) once all day, just before leaving home. I checked the weather forecast before choosing my shoes; it looked like rain.
