An unstoppable milestone<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n

A few weeks ago, we launched the Defend Metzineres<\/b> campaign with a clear goal: to demand that institutions respond to the threat that real estate speculation poses to our continuity. What has happened since then has surprised us, moved us and, above all, strengthened us.<\/p>\n

Almost 4,000 people have signed<\/b>. The media have reported on our situation. And the property owner has granted an extension until September 30, 2026.<\/p>\n

But the extension gives us time, not a solution. And time is running out.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, May 28, we need you with us!<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n

On May 28 at 6:00 p.m., Barcelona City Council will hold an extraordinary plenary session<\/strong><\/a> to address our situation. This is a real political opportunity<\/strong>. Key issues for the future of community spaces in our city will be decided there. And we need the neighborhood to be present.<\/p>\n

The day starts earlier:<\/p>\n

\ud83e\udd58 2:00 p.m. \u2013 Community paella in front of the premises at midday
\n\u270a 3:30 p.m. \u2013 Banner-making workshop at the premises
\n\ud83c\udfdb\ufe0f 5:30 p.m. \u2013 Mobilization at the Ciutat Vella District Office<\/a> during the extraordinary plenary session (Pla\u00e7a del Bonsucc\u00e9s, 3)<\/p>\n

We will be there to demand:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. An urgent response<\/b> to guarantee the continuity of Metzineres in El Raval.<\/li>\n
  2. That public administrations take responsibility<\/b>: rights cannot depend on the market.<\/li>\n
  3. The defense of Metzineres, the neighborhood and the networks we weave and sustain together as social organizations.<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Metzineres needs you<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n

    Metzineres is a non-profit cooperative that, since 2017, has been creating sheltering environments for women and gender-expansive people in situations of vulnerability. What is at stake is much more than a premises.<\/p>\n

    We are still in time to reverse this situation. That is why we ask you to:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. If you have not done so yet, sign and share the campaign<\/strong><\/a> on all your networks.<\/li>\n
    2. Spread the campaign and the call for May 28<\/strong>. The more people know what is happening, the stronger our pressure will be.<\/li>\n
    3. Join us on May 28.<\/strong> Let\u2019s show that the city mobilizes to defend its community spaces!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Rights are not negotiable. Join us in defending our neighborhood!<\/p>\n

      Sign and share. The struggle continues.<\/strong><\/p>\n
