Under the slogan «A council that cares, a council without violence», the event aims to promote citizen participation and reinforce collective commitment to equality and the eradication of gender-based violence.
The central activity will be 'A Árbore das Voces' (The Tree of Voices), a participatory project where attendees can leave messages, wishes, and commitments for respect and freedom, collectively building a tree that symbolizes community unity.
The program includes the creation of this participatory tree, a minute of silence in memory of victims of gender violence, the reading of an institutional manifesto, and the distribution of a small gift as a symbol of commitment to equality.
The event will take place on Wednesday, November 25, 2026, at 12:00 PM in the Multipurpose Hall of the Vilar de Santos City Council.
The City Council encourages all residents to participate in this day of reflection, remembrance, and collective commitment, emphasizing that «equality is built every day and the fight against gender violence is everyone's responsibility».
