Paraula Viva with Mónica Torres at the Library of Social Sciences

  • December 5th, 2025
Mónica Torres

On Thursday, 11 December, the Paraula viva project, run by the Social Sciences Library, will feature testimony from Mónica Torres, photographer for the newspaper El País

Mónica Torres (Picanya) experienced firsthand the anguish of that night and the tragedy of the following days: "We have been without help for four days. As there were robberies in the early days, we had to sleep in the house without doors and with broken windows, in fear. There was no water, no electricity, no one to help us. We went out into the street, not knowing if our neighbors had died. Everything was flooded, covered in mud, impossible to walk on, access to homes was blocked, and people were trapped inside."

🗓 Thursday, December 11, 7:00 p.m.
📍 Gregori Maians Social Sciences Library – Main Hall
🎟 Free admission until full capacity is reached
📚 Activity within the Paraula Viva series.

We invite you to attend and share a new session of the Paraula viva cycle, a living space for memory, active listening, and community rebuilding.
