The Ministry of Territorial Policy and Democratic Memory, through the Commissioner for the ‘Celebration of Spain in Freedom 50 years’, has presented a program of 480 new activities, which will take place in November and December throughout the Spanish territory, as well as its future lines of work, which will be extended in 2026.

The cultural and informative activities are programmed to generate, throughout the national territory, spaces for reflection and for the celebration of the rights and freedoms achieved in Spain in the last 50 years. The Government’s delegations and sub-delegations will be in charge of carrying out the program, which can be consulted in www.espanaenlibertad.gob.es

Minister Ángel Víctor Torres stressed that “celebrating half a century of freedom is also celebrating the plurality that defines us as a country. Therefore, it makes sense for the commemorative program to be decentralized, so that every corner of our country participates and contributes its voice to this celebration of the democratic values we share.”

Torres has been accompanied by the Undersecretary of Territorial Policy and Democratic Memory, Berta Pérez; the Commissioner for Spain in Freedom, Carmina Gustrán; the Secretary of State for Territorial Policy, Arcadi Sword and the Secretary of State for Democratic Memory, Fernando Martínez.

In parallel, ‘Democracy is your power’, a communication campaign launched this week, involves and reinforces these messages with the focus on the importance of defending democratic values. This campaign claims and updates the rights and freedoms conquered by Spanish society over these five decades.
