The "Mulleres Caldelás" program provides completely free psychological and legal consultation services, available weekly either in person or online, upon request from participants. Additionally, it includes a series of training activities designed for women's personal and professional development.
The training activities cover topics such as equality and violence against women and girls, LGTBI issues, and artificial intelligence (AI) in daily life to bridge the digital divide, including AI-powered CV creation and job search contacts. It also addresses themes like "Flying Real Dreams" and STEM careers for girls, as well as anti-inflammatory nutrition.
The program's main objectives have been to foster the labor and personal skills, competencies, capabilities, and self-esteem of women in Caldelas. The initiative has been very well-received, with many users expressing satisfaction with the knowledge gained, which has aided them in managing their capabilities both professionally and personally.
The program has successfully raised awareness on equality, recognized the various forms of violence against women and girls, and highlighted available resources to address them. It has also increased consciousness regarding the value of invisible care work and the factors contributing to structural violence. Participants concluded the workshops with increased morale and a greater awareness of their fundamental role in society.
This program was funded by the Ministry of Social Policy and Equality and co-financed by the European Union.
