The group of Roma women from Polígono Sur and Torreblanca, through their grassroots organization YILÓ, @somosyilo, is denouncing the constant problems in their neighborhoods due to the constant power cuts. They expressed this situation during a heat wave last August, now, in the middle of a cold wave, the cuts are back.

YILÓ has contacted the City Council of Seville, the Ombudsman, the Council of the Roma People and the Ministry of Health, Equality and Social Rights and Agency 2030 to find out how to proceed in the face of this situation.

From CESPYD we support YILÓ and we urge the relevant institutions to give a response on this matter as soon as possible.
