Worship Peñas, Councillor of the United Left Greens in the city of Lorca, he has given a press conference this morning to demand the municipality accession Network Free Trafficking Municipalities.
Peñas has stated that there is a network of Free Municipalities Try belonging to the Democratic Women's Movement (MDM), which promotes the fight against prostitution in order to abolish trafficking in women and girls, based on the Swedish model and has proposed a motion which has already been approved in 58 Spanish municipalities, including four of the region: Fortuna, Murcia, Eagles and Totana.
In this motion, the necessary modifications from different approaches (awareness campaigns, chasing clients and pimps, increased allocation for social service programs designed to help women who want to leave prostitution, eradication of sex ads in media are requested communication, etc) from the conviction that if reglamentamos prostitution, integrating it into the market economy, we are saying that this is unaalternativa acceptable for mujeresy therefore if acceptable, it is not necessary to remove the causes or social conditions that enable and determine women to be prostituted.
From IU-Greens we believe that our municipality should be actively involved in this issue and join the network of free municipalities of trafficking and for that in April we bring this proposal to the full without being taken into account the least by the Councillor for Equality, Eulalia Ibarra , so he returned to be treated this issue in the September regular full again find ourselves with the refusal of Mrs. Ibarra, whose only action in this regard from the council is to work with those private ONG'S as APRAMP, Cats and Oblatas, whose work is very commendable, but clearly insufficient.
Peñas has lamented the attitude expressed by a Councillor for Equality who does not believe in women or is interested in getting involved in solving such problems involving the most flagrant violation of human rights of millions of women and children victims of mafias .
