Mazarrón has lived today the International Women's Day with a very special event in which María Concepción Ruiz has been recognized as 'Woman Mazarronera 2020', receiving the award from the mayor of Mazarrón, Gaspar Miras, the first deputy mayor, Ginés Campillo, and the Councilor for Equality, Miguel Ángel Peña.
And the act of this 2020 has also been special because since 2018 a sculpture in the form of a woman has been delivered to the chosen one, original design of the Armando Fundición company.
Today, the City Council has wanted all the awards in the previous 25 years to have this sculpture and have received a replica of it.
Relatives of those who are no longer among us have been responsible for also collecting their recognition in their memory.
María Concepción Ruiz, this year's winner, commented on receiving the award that "I feel happy and fortunate because through me, with this appointment, I will make many invisible women visible. Women who quietly dedicate or they have dedicated their lives, sacrificing part of it, to care for and care for dependent people, "in reference to how their lives have changed since their two children were born.
In addition, during the act the manifesto was read in defense of Equality approved by the Plenary Session of the City Council of Mazarrón on February 25 in its ordinary session, as well as having the performance of the quartet 'Entelequia' that has interpreted several pieces musicals that have completed this appointment.
A wine of honor has put an end to the celebration that has taken place in the Cultural Center of Mazarrón with the presence of various councilors of the municipal corporation, the regional deputy Inma Lardín, as well as personalities of the social life of the municipality.
