     She has trained teachers and mainy others experts on bullying and has taken part in a big account of meetings about this topic. Moreover, she has a never-ending curriculum. For example, responsible of Human rights Commission for the Lawers Association in Málaga, coordinator of the legal assistance service for  Hate crimes victims, Amnesty International activist and...well, we coul be talking till tomorrow about her professional career. However, we want to mention here and to thank her extreme generosity for coming to our school just for free.
     She enjoys talking to students, which is very easy to verify, as they kept in silence while she was talking (and she talked a lot) about the law, about the origin of the Pride Day, about some important LGTB prominent personalities. She clarified concepts, ideas and she did it in the most gentle way.

Explaining the Pride Day Origins

Our students were absolutely delighted  with her talk.
Many of them had confessed before to ignore the meaning of some concepts we hear every day, such as intersexual or cis. Now they know their meaning. This is the first step to be tolerant and respectful.







This is what the students answered about the talked whe asked in an anonymous way.
