Next Monday, 19 in June, feminist organizations across the country have called for rallies against Spanish municipalities to demand the Rajoy government to increase the allocation to the State Pact against Violence Machista up to 120 million euros.

In Dénia, the concentration will take place at 12 in the morning at the doors of the local council to express that "Macho violence is a matter of state, which affects half of the population and has a structural cause that is inequality between men and women."

In the project of the General State Budget that arrives this week at the Congress of Deputies, the actions for the prevention of gender violence amount to 31,7 million euros after the pressure of the feminist groups. Although it is 25,7% more than 2016, 2,2 is still less than 2010's budget. This concentration serves also to denounce the freezing, in 19.741.840 euros of the Program 232B Equality between men and women, An 41,2% less than in 2010.

The feminist collective conventions denounce that "It is necessary to devote more resources to prevention in the educational, health and media fields or to address sexual violence as provided by the Istanbul Convention of 2014".
