Creación Positiva

Gender equity and rights

Creación Positiva is a feminist nonprofit recognized as a public-benefit organization at the national level. Founded in Barcelona in 2001, it works from a gender and human rights perspective to support social change in people's lives.

Areas of work

The organization focuses on two main areas:

• Care and direct support: accompanying people and helping them access rights related to sexual health, living free from violence, and a dignified life, with a focus on care and autonomy.
• Public education and policy advocacy: prevention, public awareness, and participation in advocacy efforts that seek to transform social norms.

Publications and resources

Creación Positiva produces and shares its own resources, including guides and studies on technology use by older women, sexual violence against older women, institutional violence experienced by professionals working on gender-based violence, and materials opposing lesbophobia. Its publications are released under a Creative Commons license to encourage sharing.

Recent work

Its activities include participation in university summer courses on the circular economy, social rights, and feminism; presenting reports on HIV and discrimination; and contributing to publications on the 2030 Agenda. The organization has received recognition for 25 years of work.
