Workshop – Experience of violence because I am a woman/lesbian/queer/trans…: Arundi Spasojević (SRB) and Sandra Arsovska (MK)
At the workshop, we will look into our experiences of violence and social conditioning of our traumatic experiences, we will share our thoughts on experiences of this kind, and think about how we carry on living with them. We will also examine what can be learned from those experiences and how we can increase our self-confidence, which has been continuously diminished by hetero-patriarchy.

Participants please apply at: rz.delavnica@gmail.com.

Workshop participants will help with building the rules of trust and active listening, as that is the only way to create a safe space for exposing our own experiences in connection to the chosen topic. At the end of the workshop, we will summarize our topics in the context of social/patriarchal system (personal is political), as well as in the context of the principles of emotional literacy to help us learn about ourselves, others and the society in which we live.
These experiential workshops are based on the principles of feminist consciousness raising groups. Duration: 1.5-3h.
