ROMBEL held in partnership with EuropaNova Brussels, associated partner school, the workshop focusing on the "Main forms of Gender Based Violence" with discussions about each of these forms. The workshop aimed to raise awareness among young people on violence and harassment , and we talked about the issues surrounding gender-based violence, with an emphasis on the importance of communication and respectful discourse in the fight against this scourge. Violence is not just physical. It can also be psychological, verbal, economic, or even sexual, and the consequences can be just as severe. Gender-based violence encompasses all of these forms and deeply affects the self-esteem and dignity of the victims. Psychological and verbal violence, for example, can be as devastating as physical violence, as it slowly undermines self-confidence, leads to feelings of helplessness and isolation, and affects mental health in the long term. These workshops were led by Carmen Solomie and Daria Pîrvu from ROMBEL.

The workshop tooked place during the end of school year party, where several generations, teaching staff and parents and grandparents come together. The interaction tooked place on the playground. It did not arouse the intervention of the students, nor of the adults surrounding them, which pushes us to make the decision to multiply this experience in other places, other cities (larger and smaller) in order to be able to learn more from it.

MULTIPLE DISCRIMINATION ! Part II
#RomBel team is visiting the Belgian Center of Comics in Brussels, as part of the workshop of research, observation and analysis in order to create an information leaflet on GBV inspired by comics, within the Stand Against GBV Through Theater ErasmusPlus project.
Comicbooks usualy tells us many stories about many different people. Lately, the issue of GBV invited herself into the comicbooks and with every single story we can discover the MULTIPLE DISCRIMINATION , how does GBV influence the lives of individuals and learn to better understand how GBV is represented in our day to day life, such as :
• individual oppression; observation and analysis on individual oppression: being subjected to gender-based violence as individuals on a personal level
• collective or social oppression; observation and analysis on interpersonal, collective or social Oppression: how does our attitude and behaviour in society, directed towards different groups of people, creates causes of gender-based violence within our communities.
• structural or institutional oppression; observation and analysis on structural or institutional oppression: policies and practices that exist throughout a whole society or organization that result in and support a continued unfair advantage to some people and unfair or harmful treatment of others based on race, gender or ethnic group. It manifests as discrimination in areas such as criminal justice, employment, housing, healthcare, education and political representation
To this day, The Comic Center in Brussels has only ONE comic book related to #genderbasedviolence, raising the issues of oppression and hate crimes lived by the LGBTQI+ persons worldwide, called « Blue is a hot colour » created by Jul' Maroh, and published by Glénat in March 2010, more then 14 years ago !

ROMBEL - When in #Brussels : Point it out! / Part I
Observation and analysis with #RomBel team for the upcomming #workshop on MULTIPLE DISCRIMINATION within the ErasmusPlus project STAND AGAINST GENDER BASED VIOLENCE THROUGH THEATER
RomBel team participated to a #comicbook workshop where we learned how to bring to life creations that make social issues accessible to teenagers through comics. We learned to tell stories in pictures, to create our own comic strip and we discovered the secrets of comic books, a genre so popular and appreciated in Belgium.
The workshop began with a discussion linked to the history of comic books, since the first drawing on the walls inside the caves from ancient times, to the rough drawing of Rodolphe Töpffer, the first to create theoretical documents. He began to create some illustrated stories, in 1827, for his students, stories which were based on a new way of articulating texts and images, mounted in sequences.
We also discovered different styles and techniques for drawing comic books, and how comics have addressed social issues. Now our rôle is to return and speak with friends, family, classmates who may have experienced gender-based violence and afterwards to create stories and characters, and draw them into the panels.
