Feminist Square is a public premises of the Town Hall located in Aristizabal street. It has two separate spaces; in one of them we find equality techniques, since the Areas of Equality, Cultural Diversity and Cooperation are located here. The other space is used by various agents who work in the municipality in favour of equality from a feminist point of view, such as the Equality Council, Bilgune Feminista, the Men's Group, Plax! There is a youth counselling service as well as various courses run by the Women's Empowerment School. Feminist Square aims to be the center of all movements working in this field, becoming a point of reference and enabling the creation of networks.
Hernani has long had the need to create its own space with these features, a space that we hope will serve as an instrument of empowerment, becoming a political forum for sharing alliances, putting together a common space and sharing experiences.
This space has become too small as various movements have emerged, and that is why the need for the Women's House has become so apparent.
