Description

"This project develops an innovative translational arts-based approach to prevent GBV in Brazil and creates engagement and policy pathways that can be scaled-up transnationally. Drawing on established successful international collaborations, it will be conducted in the favelas of Maré in Rio de Janeiro with Redes da Maré (Redes) (a community-based human rights NGO), together with People’s Palace Projects (an arts centre using creativity for transformation - PPP) and Women of the World Foundation (a global movement creating a gender equal world – WOW). Through exploring ways to address and prevent GBV in Brazil, one of the main factors undermining sustainable development is addressed illustrating that this project is directly and primarily relevant to the addressing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Brazil. More specifically, SDG 5 on achieving gender equality and empowering all women and girls is at the core of this project. It directly addresses target 5.1 ‘End all forms of discrimination against all women and girls everywhere’ and Target 5.2 ‘Eliminate all forms of violence against all women and girls in the public and private spheres’. The project also addresses SDG 11 on making cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable, especially in relation to the importance of making public spaces safe for everyone (Indicator 11.7.2)

Objectives

This project develops an innovative translational arts-based approach to prevent gender-based violence (GBV) in Brazil, together with creating transnational transformations. Focusing on young people as the key to future prevention, this research aims to understand and reshape the drivers of GBV and explore how feminist youth activism can be built to prevent it
