The Fundació Autònoma Solidària Health programme once again will host its literary competition on sexuality and eroticism.
Participants must be aged 16 to 30 and can present their text in two different categories: poetry (free format) or prose (maximum 1500 words). It is possible to participate in more than one category and texts can be written in Catalan, English or Spanish.
Although the topic is free, the jury will positively value texts that reflect and incorporate a perspective related to healthy sexuality and self-image. In contrast, texts explicitly or implicitly narrating fantasies or stories containing sexual and/or patriarchal violence, or perpetuating gender roles and stereotypes, will be negatively valued.
Texts can be submitted until 17 April and the winners will be announced on the day of "La Comunitària", which will be held on 20 April.
To participate, applicants must sign up using this form. The texts must be sent in PDF format, signed with a pseudonym and sent to programasalut.fas@gmail.com , with the suject of “literary contest”.
The winner in each category will receive a Voluptas card game and a gift card for the erotic store Platanomelón, while all participants will receive a prize which they can pick up at the Espai FAS, located at the Plaça Cívica.
The winning texts will be made public and shared on the FAS's social networks. For more information on contest rules and regulations please click here.
