Òmnium Cultural has been working for more than 50 years as a civil society entity to promote the Catalan language and culture as well as to spread Catalonia's will for freedom. In recent years, Òmnium has added among its objectives that of being an actor in favor of its own State. To achieve this national objective, Òmnium, which has more than 34.000 members and 28 territorial offices, develops campaigns, actions and also large protest events such as: the demonstration of 1 million people in 2010 against the ruling of the Constitutional Court against the Statute of Catalonia, the Concert for Freedom on June 29, 2013 that brought together 90.000 people at Camp Nou or Via Catalana on September 11 with x participants. Starting this fall, the entity is promoting a long-term campaign that aims to reinforce the commitment of Catalan civil society so that 2014 is the year of the self-determination referendum in Catalonia as well as promoting the YES option. In addition, Òmnium promotes programs in favor of the Catalan language and culture such as the Premi d'Honor de les Lletres Catalanes, the Night of Santa Llúcia, Sant Jordi, the Flame of Canigó and September 11. In the same way, the entity is also one of the promoters of the Somescola.cat platform that defends the immersion model in schools that allows Catalan students to finish their mandatory training with knowledge of Catalan and Spanish language and literature.
