Joan Herrera i Torres

Joan Herrera i Torres (Barcelona, Spain, 29 January 1971) is a Spanish lawyer and politician from Catalonia.

He began his political activism in the grouping Youth with Initiative (JIC) in the Barcelona district of Sant Martí.

Under his leadership the youth organization was defined as eco-socialist, a definition later used by the grouping Initiative for Catalonia Greens (ICV) which Herrera joined.

Since the ninth meeting of ICV, held in Sabadell in November 2008, is secretary general of the group.

In 2009, he sought to publicly condemn Pope Benedict XVI for having argued that condoms may in fact do more harm than good in the fight against AIDS.
