(en) Spaine, CN #434 - Secretariat of Feminism - Rosa Fraile (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Date Thu, 31 Aug 2023 09:11:50 +0300


The second time was the charm. It was rejected at the Zaragoza/2015 congress, and seven years later the organization has assessed, in this XII Congress that we have just held, that yes, it is a necessary tool, and we finally have the new "Secretariat of Feminism" in our committees. The purpose is firm and the objective clear: to really be a feminist organization and achieve that much-needed transversality in the day-to-day of the organization and in the anarcho-syndicalism that we develop. ---- It is not about having a specific secretariat for "girls" issues. The paper we approved at the congress was very clear in this regard.

Luckily it has been widely demonstrated that without this secretariat we can perfectly organize days as important for us as 8M or 25N. This is how it should continue, to dedicate its efforts to the true objective of the Feminism Secretariat, and that our communication, union, social, cultural action, training, and our organic dynamics, meetings and work groups, care dynamics, etc., are feminists.

The transversality of feminism in our work will need solid working groups that support and help its development.

We know that, in general, female affiliation is considerably less than male. The companions will have to pitch in, yes, or yes. This does not take away from recognizing that women need to participate more actively in the committees and assume responsibilities within the organization, and this new secretariat can be an incentive for this. We need to promote women's membership and active participation in all aspects of our union, and work to continue to grow our CNT membership.

It is quite a challenge that we should certainly celebrate, even if the task is vast. The transversality of feminism in our work will need solid working groups that support and help its development.

We are on the right track seeking to achieve real and effective equality between women and men. I sincerely hope that there are many comrades who step forward and are willing to take up the challenge in their unions. Would be great.

But if not, welcome whoever is in charge of this secretariat, she, he, or she.
