This morning, the 13th edition of the Beldur Barik Program for the prevention of gender-based violence among young people was presented at the Musika Eskola de Sestao with the participation of many local authorities from different institutions of the BAC.

The audio-visual competition is the central and best-known event of the programme, a competition where young people must demonstrate their stance against violence against women and in favor of an egalitarian society.

As Minister Beatriz Artolazabal explained, “more than 300 audiovisual works were presented this year, most of them in groups, so the number of young people participating is much higher”. He also emphasized the importance of group work, “because in this way the creative process itself becomes a collective reflection and discussion process on violence against women among young people”.

In Artolazabal’s words, “Recently, the Basque Youth Observatory has provided data showing that the vast majority of young women return home with fear,” indicating that “programs for young boys and girls continue to be essential.”
