EQUALITY

Why talk about the need to learn to share life in equality if discrimination does not exist? Why talk about the need to learn to share life in equality if there are no problems? Why talk about the need to learn to share life in equality if there are no differences? Reality is much more complex than how we perceive it. In order to achieve equality, we need to learn to relate to each other regarding respect,...

THE BEAUTY OF BEING DIFFERENT

When somebody tells you “You know, you look different from the others”, don’t you feel special? That’s the kind of feeling that each of you should always experience in life. The sensation of being unique and irreplaceable. When we are being told that we are different we never directly link this message to awkwardness or embarrassment, because we know that whoever told that to us meant it good. So...

NO PREJUDICES BUT FACTS

The dictionary defines “prejudice” as a preconceived opinion that is not based on reason or actual experience. What results from this definition, is that prejudice is nothing but a product of our mind. We perceive the world around us on the norms of prejudices that we have most probably inherited from the family, the community and the society we live in. What happens when  prejudice wins over reality?...

ON SOCIAL COMMITTMENT

Society is the result of the community we grow in. It is the combination of people making an incredible melting pot of characters, particularities and specialities. As part of a whole, each of us is called to contribute to the safeguard and the improvement of this community. This is why it is so important to respect it, to respect the environment it is inserted in, and to respect your own neighborhoods and...

LEAD OUR CHANGE

The reeds under the force of the wind. A bow that bends to shoot an arrow. These are examples of flexibility and adaptability. If we talk about flexibility, the ability to adapt, the ability to face adversity, the ability to overcome problems, then the concept is resilience. If we speak of accepting reality, of doing different things, of strengthening ourselves in times of crisis, of being able to direct...

TOLERANCE WITH INTOLERANCE?

Do we live in an increasingly tolerant society or, on the contrary, more intolerant than ever? Doesn't matter where we are born, where we grow or where we live? Doesn't our race, ethnicity, religion or culture matter? Diversity is one of the main characteristics of humans. Differences make us unique and enrich our society. The problem is that we live in a world where it is difficult to accept...

IN THE SERVICE OF…

Good treatment is promoting, denouncing, welcoming, loving, respecting, and participating. Good treatment is possible through the recognition of dignity, empathy, dialogue, or interaction between equals. Zineb tells us that, for her, respect as well as mutual help and empathy are key values. Good treatment is based on respect for others, recognition as people, as human beings, in a way that allows us...

ON GENDER EQUALITY

“Don’t cry like a girl”, “be a real man”, “these are things for boys”. How many times have you heard sentences like those? They may come from different sources, different people, different contexts, at times it is even unpredictable to tell where the next one will come from. And there you are, struggling to understand what you have done wrong, if you ever did something wrong. You get full of...

FIGHT AGAINST ISOLATION. DO YOU SIGN UP?

The covid19 has completely disrupted our lives. More than changing the world, the covid-19 and the resulting social emergency have aggravated the ills we already suffered. Ending isolation is a political option. We are capable of measuring poverty and isolation, but it seems that we are not capable of combating it. We are capable of measuring poverty and isolation, but it seems that it is impossible to...

ON COOPERATION

Have you ever played a team sport? Many of us, during our childhood, have played football, basketball or volleyball, at least once. In these games, the most important focus is on teamwork, rather than on every single player. It is the group that leads to victory and it is in the presence and collaboration of each other that all the members find enjoyment and happiness. It wouldn’t be the same without...
