Do you know Amandine Zidane? No, of course. “It is the name of an imaginary footballer who could quite be real if public policies further supported women’s sport”, reveals Fatma Adda this Monday, March 8 in the morning a few steps from the Lycée du Garros. And more precisely at the end of rue Darwin which will be provisionally renamed Amandine Zidane. The same operation took place in Nîmes and Carcassonne.
“For the ecologists,“ L’Occitanie naturally ”, by renaming these streets, it is about bringing a strong proposal, budgetary equality in public policies. Attempts at a “gendered” budget that have been made at the national level estimate that on average, in public policies, for one euro spent on women, 4 are spent on men. The ambition of environmentalists is to restore balance in the Occitan region by arriving at one euro spent for a man equals one euro spent for a woman, ”explains Fatma Adda.
The Regional Councilor concluded: “By choosing a fictional character, we are affirming an ambition: that of giving women and girls a chance, whatever their condition, their talents or their feats of arms. And to promote both exceptional women and those who could become ”.
