The event brought together over 30 migrant women from various sectors in Bilbao, aiming to foster professional relationships and create new opportunities for collaboration and development. The day was based on the “Netbonding” methodology, promoting shared goals, collaboration, and mutual respect.
This initiative is part of the Bilbao Migrant Women Community, a project stemming from the annual Recognition of Bilbao Migrant Women, an initiative driven by the Bilbao City Council since 2019. Its purpose is to highlight and give visibility to the contributions of migrant women in the city's social, cultural, economic, and community life.
During the event, in the "TEDx Zone", two migrant women shared their personal and professional experiences. Subsequently, the participating women and invited entities presented their backgrounds, proposals, and resources.
“"The meeting concluded with an intervention by Liliana Villalobos, from Jappy Gallery, focused on the collective construction of a manifesto elaborated from the participants' voices and reflections."
The day concluded with a "Café Bonding" session with Entities, designed to encourage dialogue and the creation of new connections. Finally, Liliana Villalobos (Jappy Gallery) led the collective construction of a manifesto based on the attendees' reflections.
The Bilbao Migrant Women Community is structured around the recognition event promoted by the Bilbao City Council since 2019, establishing itself as a hub for meeting, empowerment, and visibility for migrant women in the city.
