About Ateneu Republicà de Catalunya

Republican and secular ideas in Catalonia

Ateneu Republicà de Catalunya is a Barcelona-based organization that promotes discussion of republicanism, federalism, and secularism. It belongs to Lliga per la Laïcitat, a coalition of 84 organizations, associations, and unions committed to freedom, tolerance, and progress.

Events and civic work

The association organizes and supports book presentations, lectures, and civic events. Its work has included presenting Ricardo Tejero's book 47 millones de razones para ser republicano and a lecture by Victoria Fernández on the exile of republican sailors. It has also taken part in the Plataforma Contra la Impunitat, commemorations for people executed at Camp de la Bota, and campaigns for a secular income-tax declaration.

Locally, it helped establish the Comitè Republicà Federal de Viladecans and the Ateneu Republicà Federal de Viladecans to encourage civic participation and republican and federal values.
