The municipalities of Ibiza join this 25N with a minute’s silence against violence against women

The town halls of Ibiza have held simultaneous events this Tuesday at 12.00 noon to commemorate the 25N, a key date in the international agenda to remember the victims of violence against women and reinforce the institutional commitment to this reality.

Through these acts, the municipal corporations insist on the need to advance in prevention policies and support for victims, in addition to claiming a united response to any form of violence.

Sant Joan reaffirms its unanimous condemnation

The City Council of Sant Joan de Labritja has held a minute of silence at the gates of the town hall to remember all the murdered women. With this gesture, the municipality wanted to underline its firm and resounding condemnation of violence against women.

The consistory also reiterated its commitment to prevention, awareness and support for victims, pillars that it considers fundamental to progress in the eradication of this social scourge.

Santa Eulària reads a joint manifesto

In Santa Eulària des Riu, the event was marked by the reading of the manifesto agreed between PP, PSOE and Unides Podem, by the accidental mayor, Miguel Tur. After the reading, the attendees observed a minute of silence.

The text stresses that violence against women violates fundamental rights and destroys lives. Under this year’s slogan, “Raise your voice against violence against women”, the need to continue strengthening resources and public policies is recalled. In Spain alone, up to November 4, 2025, 35 women have been murdered, according to official data.

The manifesto includes commitments such as the coordination of services, affective-sexual education in educational centers, the availability of emergency housing, awareness campaigns and the promotion of women’s economic autonomy.

During his speech, Tur pointed out that 25N “is not only a day of memory and denunciation; it is a day of unity and collective commitment“.

Ibiza reinforces its prevention policies

In the island’s capital, representatives of the Ibiza Town Hall gathered in front of the Casal de Igualdad to observe a minute’s silence. The Councilor for Equality, Sara Barbado, reaffirmed that the council will continue to promote policies of prevention, awareness and support for victims.

Barbado also recalled that this Thursday will be read in the ordinary plenary the Institutional Declaration of 25N, presented jointly by PP, PSOE and Unidas Podemos.

During this week, the Municipal Library of Eivissa has installed the “Taules Morades”, a space for literary recommendations with a gender perspective that invites citizens to reflect on violence against women.

Sant Josep and Sant Antoni demand zero tolerance

The municipalities of Sant Josep de sa Talaia and Sant Antoni de Portmany have developed very similar acts, with minutes of silence and the reading of institutional manifestos that emphasize unity, education and zero tolerance to violence against women.

In Sant Josep, the Councilor for Social Action, Family and Equality, Marilina Serra, read the manifesto prepared by the Institut Balear de la Dona and recalled that so far in 2025 more than 30 women have been murdered in Spain, a figure that “forces us to maintain our determination and commitment”. The municipality has accompanied the event with a monthly program of activities that includes educational talks, theater performances, children’s workshops and the screening of the film “Breaking the circle”.

For its part, Sant Antoni has read a manifesto stressing that violence against women remains “an unacceptable reality” and that this year 38 women have been murdered, which requires strengthening resources, ensuring the protection of victims and improving judicial and social services. The text proclaims zero tolerance for violence, silence and indifference, and reaffirms the municipal commitment to the year’s slogan: “Raise your voice against violence against women”.

The 25N is thus consolidated on the island as a day of collective awareness, in which administrations and citizens look towards the same goal: to move towards a safer, more egalitarian and violence-free Ibiza.
