The Equality Unit launches a cycle of egalitarian debates at the La Nau Cultural Center, with which it is expected to contribute to consolidating a culture of equality at the University of Valencia, linked to the third of the axes of the II Equality Plan (2013-2017 : "Creation of a culture of Equality"). This activity, which will be periodic and variable, aims to help raise awareness and disseminate among the university community, and also in society in general, the equality policies promoted by the Equality Unit of the University of Valencia.
Among the objectives pursued with the debates of "La Nau de la Igualtat" stands out the fact of polemicizing the key elements of debate in feminist thought, in order to advance to achieve more consensual positions that favor the struggle and social conquests in matter of equality. Discussion tables are undoubtedly an ideal setting to encourage reflection and dialogue.

DEBATE. "Feminist reflections on motherhood"
Date and time: Thursday, February 23, 2017, at 6:30 p.m.
Speakers:
Ana Marrades Puig. Professor of Constitutional Law at the University of Valencia, Sara Jort Povea.

Moderator: Berta Chulvi Ferriols. Journalist and PhD in Social Psychology.
Within the cycle of debates promoted by "La Nau de la Igualtat", "Feminist reflections on motherhood" is organized. In it, a series of questions related to motherhood will be exposed with the double objective of offering a critical reflection from feminist thought and trying to find answers to these questions, such as:
Is there a feminist motherhood? Is motherhood an experience of pleasure or a trap that generates gender gaps? Does feminism defend an empowered motherhood? Does motherhood have negative effects on the female workplace? What models exist in Europe to deal with the care of the offspring avoiding its negative effects in the workplace? What do feminists think of natural childbirth, breastfeeding or attachment parenting? ...
The round table will be composed of four feminist women from various academic fields who provide different arguments and positions regarding the questions raised in order to enrich the debate and promote reflections, both at the table and among the public.

DEBATE: Surrogate wombs. Does all feminism say no?
Date and time: December 12, 2016, at 6:30 p.m.
Speakers: Alicia Miyares, PhD in Philosophy, Philosophy professor and collaborating professor at the University of Oviedo; spokesperson for the platform “We are not vessels” and Beatriz Gimeno, social activist, feminist for sexual diversity; deputy in the Madrid Assembly; Head of Equality in the Citizen Council of the Community of Madrid.
As with other aspects that affect women, we are witnessing a new debate capable of dividing the feminist movement. It is about surrogacy, an issue that requires serious reflection for various reasons.
Although in Spain this practice is prohibited by Law 14/2006 of May 26 on Assisted Human Reproduction Techniques, this prohibition is obviated by resorting to third countries that have not yet legislated in a restrictive way, such as India, Cambodia, Russia, some states Americans like Florida ... or countries much closer, like Greece.
The debate has focused mainly on the alleged right to maternity or paternity of those people who for various reasons cannot or do not wish to access a “conventional” maternity or paternity.
As a consequence, other no less important debates have been displaced, such as the implications for women with fewer economic resources and the limits of such a market (if it has any limits). Nor can the existence of other options to fulfill motherhood or fatherhood, such as international adoptions, escape the debate.

DEBATE. "Agreements and disagreements of feminism on prostitution"
Date and time: Wednesday, September 28, at 7 p.m.
Speakers: Ana de Miguel (Rey Juan Carlos University) and Ruth Mestre (University of Valencia) A few notes on the speakers
The debate takes place on the occasion of the celebration, during the month of September, of two related events, such as the international days of Sexual Exploitation and Trafficking of Women (September 23) and of Sexual and Reproductive Rights (September 28). ). It is a debate in which feminist agreements and disagreements regarding prostitution will be raised, and for which two recognized feminists experts in the field have been invited to defend the two great positions: Ana de Miguel, who advocates for the abolition of prostitution, and Ruth Mestre, from a position of regulation or recognition of rights (pro-rights). The dean of the Law School, Maria Elena Olmos, will be the moderator of a debate that promises to be very passionate, dealing with such a controversial issue as prostitution, which has historically divided the feminist movement. The objective of the debate is to make a contribution to the necessary reflection on these issues, to arrive at a position, the more unified the better, for the case at hand -in a more or less immediate future-, the so often claimed state pact on equality and against gender violence.
