Radio Sintonia:
The voices of the majoreras, those who "extinguished the silence".
The play 'The voices that extinguished the silence', which will be carried out by the Training Program in Alternation with Employment (PFAE) 'Cultureando Fuerteventura' of the Island Council, will be performed tomorrow, Tuesday, September 19, at the Manuel Sánchez González Auditorium in Antigua.
With the aim of rescuing the memory and culture of the island through the testimonies of the elderly, the work will be represented to students of schools at 10:30 am, and at 18:00 pm it will be aimed at the elderly, associations and the general public, who will be able to enter until the capacity is completed.
This project arises as a response to the need to give voice and put at the center the majorera woman, who has been fundamental in the social, economic and cultural development of the island.
The Minister of Employment Promotion, Nuria Cabrera, explains that "the objective of the PFAE 'Cultureando Fuerteventura' is to dynamize, program and develop recreational and cultural actions performing support tasks for the Ministry of Culture and Historical Heritage of the Cabildo in the different localities of the Island. It is part of the seven PFAE launched by the Island Corporation and has funding from the Canary Islands Employment Service.
This play has the support of the Government of the Canary Islands, the Canary Islands Development Fund (FDCAN) and the State Public Employment Service (SEPE) of the Government of Spain.
