Description
Disclaimer: This episode is an edit in response to the upcoming November 25th International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
Sensible subjects on GBV, human trafficking, colonial trauma and impunity will be addressed.
As producer of the Ser mujer en Latinoamerica documentary map, this is a personal and difficult reflection on international gender equality agendas and systemic and cultural violence for not all states are created equal nor do they all play by the same rules.
Violence against women is increasing in Latin America and the Caribbean and unless we understand and address the root causes of violence and not just its symptoms, oppression and inequalities will persist and old wounds (between past imperialistic powers and previous colonies) will continue running deep.
