The FAS Health Program organizes the seventh edition of the literary contest on sexuality and eroticism, a contest open to all the public over the age of 16 who wish to participate.

The contest has three categories: poetry in free format, prose (maximum 1,500 words) and tweets of 140 characters. It is possible to participate in more than one category and can be done in Catalan, Spanish or English. Although the topic is free, the jury will positively value texts that reflect and incorporate a perspective related to healthy sexuality and self-image.

The writings have to be submitted in PDF format and signed with a pseudonym until 19 April to programasalut.fas@gmail.com, with the subject of "Literary Contest". The text of the e-mail must indicate the category in which you participate, language, name and surname, the contact number of the author and the pseudonym, which will be made public. It must also be made clear whether, in the event of being a winner, the author wishes to remain anonymous or whether he/she authorizes the dissemination of his/her authorship through the FAS networks.

All participants in the contest will receive an award for participation consisting of a health program notebook and a pleasure pack. In addition, the 3 winning writings will also take away the isothermal glass of the program, and a book.

The winners of each of the 3 categories will be announced coinciding with Saint George, on April 23rd, with the verdict, publication and awarding of prizes to the 3 winning stories by the jury. In addition, there will be a reading of the winning texts.

The jury for the erotic stories competition is composed of a member of the FAS team, one from the Observatory for Equality and one from Cultura en Viu, who will not know the identity of the author of the story. The winner will come out of the vote among the jury from the score of each story. If you want to know more about the contest, you can consult the rules.

With this activity, the FAS Health Program continues to work and promote a healthy sexuality from an open, personal and informed perspective. It is one of its main courses of action, along with the responsible consumption of substances, the conscious feeding and general promotion of healthy lifestyles from peer to peer information and empowerment of people as agents of change in their own health.
