Mayen sets a sign: action day against everyday sexism!

A dramatic day of action in Mayen has directed the eyes of an urgent problem: sexism in everyday life! On November 18, 2024 at 5:00 p.m., the city's equality officer, Ina Rüber-Teeke, launched an initiative that is not just empty words. The city of Mayen shows that it wants to actively act against the widespread discrimination!

The action day "Together against sexism" is a powerful sign against everyday attacks that women, men and queer people suffer. From offensive sayings to inappropriate touch - the list of attacks is long and shocking. The Mayen Equal Opportunity Office has set itself the goal of raising awareness of this problem and raising society. It is about making the creeping forms of sexism visible, which are often dismissed as "normal".

The event should not only inform, but also encourage them to actively act against sexism. The city of Mayen takes a pioneering role and shows that it is time to break silence and fight for equality. The day of action is a call to everyone to position yourself against discrimination and to promote respectful society.
