The Tarongers Campus of the Universitat de València is currently hosting a broad programme of activities to mark 25 November, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. The Faculties of Social Sciences, Law, Economics and Teacher Training, together with various university units and groups, are organising workshops, seminars, debates, artistic initiatives and participatory actions aimed at raising awareness among the university community about the different forms of gender-based violence.
The programme combines training spaces—including sessions on the prevention of digital gender violence, the analysis of stereotypes in the justice system, and coercive control in relationships—with collective reflection and engagement activities, such as roundtable discussions, initiatives led by the ADR teams, and participatory installations across the campus.
As part of this programme, on Tuesday, 25 November, from 12:00 to 14:00, the Ascensión Chirivella Auditorium at the Faculty of Law will host a seminar led by Federico José Arena, Postdoctoral Researcher at the Barcelona Institute of Analytic Philosophy and independent researcher at CONICET. The session explores stereotypes in judicial processes based on the text “Stereotypes and Facts in the Trial”, offering a critical reflection on how such biases influence impartiality and decision-making.
The programme also includes cultural initiatives, such as a contemporary dance performance in several locations across the campus and the exhibition Women and the Rural World, which opens on 25 November and will remain on display at the Manuela Ballester Hall until January 2026.
In addition, the campus hosts institutional actions that highlight memory, awareness and symbolic denunciation of gender-based violence, including commemorative moments, recognitions and open activities for students.
Through this coordinated and cross-disciplinary initiative, the Tarongers Campus reaffirms its commitment to equality and to the fight against all forms of violence against women, transforming its spaces into places for gathering, reflection and awareness-raising.
