Hermoso de Mendoza entrega el Premio de Igualdad al IES Cosme García y a la periodista Chelo Álvarez-Stehle

Honored to receive the Equality Prize "Teresa Leon Goyri, City of Logroño"

The award of the City of Logroño bears the name of the Logroño writer and scriptwriter of Spain’s generation of 27, Teresa León Goyri, one of the hat-less women, who lived in exile after the civil war. It is a tribute and recognition of her social commitment and her literary work.

Chelo Álvarez-Stehle has been recognized for her "outstanding career as a journalist, writer, filmmaker and activist in defense of women's rights and, especially, in her fight against sexual violence and trafficking".

The jury has highlighted her documentary film Sands of Silence: Waves of Courage Film on Sexual Violence and Trafficking screened in cities around the world, including Logroño, which has received numerous awards.

Eva Tobías , Councilor for Equality has pointed out: All the nominations received have been valued mainly according to three criteria: the trajectory of the candidate entity/person in the field of equality of women and men; the capacity for social transformation of the work, trajectory or activity in the field of equality of women and men; and the repercussion and influence in the city of Logroño of the action, actions, work or projects or trajectory developed by the proposed person/entity.

"It is an honor to receive this award," says Chelo, who rescues the work and struggle of this logroñesa whose eclectic literary and artistic creation and social commitment were silenced, as so often, under the shadow of her husband. We all know Alberti, but very few of us knew León Goyri".

María Teresa León was a woman committed to the conflictive times in which she lived and who confronted criticism and social conventions. She wrote short stories, novels, plays, biographies, novels, essays, film and radio scripts and an autobiography. He cultivated all literary genres.

In 1928 she published her first book of short stories 'Cuentos para soñar. Throughout her life she wrote seven collections of short stories, many of them with a marked social character, among them 'Rosa fría, patinadora de la luna', with illustrations by her husband Rafael Alberti, and 'Fábulas del tiempo amargo, with a surrealist tone.
