The militia women of The Barceloneta Neighborhood
On October 26th, the Barceloneta History Workshop gave a lecture
Many cities, one ocean
- #6/2023, Port
In October, El Centro de la Playa unites with the Institute of Marine Sciences (ICM-CSIC) to celebrate the month of Ocean Cities, to promote a harmonious coexistence between Barcelona, the people who live there and the sea.
OceanCities Network is a ten-year program supported by UNESCO that brings together cities from several countries in the world. The objective is to promote the relationship between the city and the sea through science, under the premise that the world is made up of many cities united by a single ocean.
At this historic moment, where climate change is a fact, it is clear that coastal cities will suffer the most from its effects. The solutions to these challenges require the commitment of society as a whole, with the active participation of the citizens.
October, more activities
-Throughout the month: exhibition of the illustrations of the Vendela Vrensk of the story “La yaya velleta y el suquet de peix de la Barceloneta”, written by Ana Ayala, clean of fishermen of the neighborhood and with a very close link with the sea.
