Aligned with the Global 16 Days of Activism against Gender Based Violence (25 Nov to 10 Dec), Latin America Bureau and King’s College London release a three-part podcast in which women tell their own stories of social change.
Through the project, we hope to influence policy around gender-based violence and highlight the voices and lessons of those working on the frontlines of their communities. We’d be grateful if you could help us achieve this by leaving a review and sharing the podcast using #WomenResistingViolence
Available in English, Spanish and Portuguese on all podcast platforms and on our website.

3. Step Up Migrant Women
Gil migrated to the UK from Brazil with her partner and two children as a tourist, and subsequently became undocumented. When she fled abuse, she was not supported by the police and she ended up homeless with a child in mid-winter. Finding the Latin American Women’s Rights Service (LAWRS) changed her life and Gil now works on the group's Step Up Migrant Women campaign to highlight the vulnerability of migrant women with insecure immigration status who are suffering domestic abuse.
LAWRS also works with Migrants in Action (MinA), a community theatre group dedicated to Brazilian women in London who have experienced gender violence. Using theatre techniques, they create a safe space for women to share stories, identify violence and heal. We hear from the artistic director, Carolina Cal.
Women Resisting Violence is presented by Renata Peppl and produced by Louise Morris. Made through a partnership with King's College London and the Latin America Bureau.
Featuring music by Rebeca Lane, WARA and Uppbeat*. With excerpts from ‘We Still Fight in the Dark’/ 'Lutamos no escuro’, developed by Migrants in Action (MinA)
featuring "Alguém me avisou" by Dona Ivone Lara.
This episode is also available in Spanish and Portuguese.

3. Mujeres Migrantes: Levántense
Gil emigró al Reino Unido desde Brasil con su pareja y sus dos hijos. Entró al país como turista y posteriormente se convirtió en indocumentada. Cuando el abuso aumentó, Gil huyó de su casa pero no recibió ayuda de la policía británica. Acabó en la calle con sus hijos en el invierno. Su vida cambió al encontrarse con el Servicio para los Derechos de las Mujeres Latinoamericanas (Latin American Women’s Rights Service - LAWRS), y ahora Gil trabaja en la Campaña Step Up Migrant Women, perteneciente a la organización, para visibilizar la vulnerabilidad de las mujeres migrantes con estatus incierto en situaciones de abuso doméstico.
LAWRS también trabaja con Migrants in Action (MinA), un teatro comunitario dedicado a las mujeres brasileñas que han sufrido violencia de género. A través de técnicas teatrales, ellas crean un espacio seguro para compartir sus experiencias, identificar la violencia y sanar.
Women Resisting Violence es presentado por Renata Peppl y producido por Louise Morris. Producido tras una colaboración entre el King's College London y el Latin America Bureau.
Con la música de Rebeca Lane, WARA y Uppbeat*, y extractos de ’Lutamos no escuro’ (‘Todavía luchamos en en oscuro’) realizado por Migrants in Action (MinA) con el tema "Alguém me avisou" de Dona Ivone Lara.
Este episodio también está disponible en inglés y en portugués.
Este podcast trata de influenciar de manera positiva sobre las políticas principales en torno a la violencia contra las mujeres, y de sobresalir las lecciones y voces de ellas que trabajan en la primera línea. Para cumplir con esto, nos agradecerá si nos dejas una reseña y que lo compartas ampliamente.

3. Reaja Mulher Migrante
Gil migrou do Brasil para o Reino Unido com o companheiro e dois filhos. Ela entrou no país como turista e, posteriormente, ficou sem documentos. Quando o abuso aumentou, Gil fugiu de sua casa, mas ela não recebeu nenhuma ajuda da polícia britânica. Ela acabou desabrigada com seu filho em pleno inverno. Encontrar o Latin American Women’s Rights Service (LAWRS) mudou sua vida, e Gil agora trabalha na campanha Step Up Migrant Women do LAWRS que ressalta a vulnerabilidade das mulheres migrantes com status de imigração irregular sujeitas à violência doméstica.
LAWRS também trabalha com Migrants in Action (MinA), um grupo de teatro comunitário dedicado a mulheres brasileiras em Londres que sofreram violência de gênero. Por meio do teatro, o grupo cria um espaço seguro para as mulheres compartilharem histórias, aprenderem a identificar violência e se curarem.
Louise Morris foi a produtora e roteirista e Renata Peppl a apresentadora.
Você ouviu músicas de Rebeca Lane, WARA e Uppbeat* com trechos de ’Lutamos no escuro’ realizado por Migrants in Action (MinA) apresentando a "Alguém me avisou" de Dona Ivone Lara.
Este podcast espera influenciar a política em torno da violência de gênero, compartilhar aprendizados e destacar as vozes de quem trabalha na linha de frente nas comunidades –– ficaremos gratas se você puder deixar um comentário e compartilhar para nos ajudar.

2. Rio's Trailblazing Women's House
Located in one of the largest favela complexes in Brazil, Rio’s Casa Das Mulheres is a haven for those leaving abusive relationships, in an area where police refuse to intervene. It’s also been a lifeline for the community during Covid, when many favela residents lost their jobs - as they've provided work and distributed food to starving families as well as dealing with a huge rise in domestic violence.
We hear from the founder of the Women’s House, Eliana Sousa Silva, and her colleagues from the NGO Networks of Maré, about the struggles the women of Maré face and how they’ve adapted to help each other and transform their neighbourhood in the face of government neglect.
Huge thanks to Eliana Sousa Silva, Julia Leal and Michele Gandra for sharing their stories with us.
Head to wrv.org.uk (wrv.org.uk) for more about the project and redesdamare.org.br (redesdamare.org.br) to learn more about the Women’s House.
Louise Morris was the producer and writer, Renata Peppl the presenter.
Juliana Postico, Claudia Alves and Najlla Kay were the dubbing artists and Ella Barnes and Theodora Bradford our translators.
Featuring music by Rebeca Lane, Jonathan Panta, Rafael Rocha, Serena Assumpção and Gilberto Martins.
This podcast hopes to influence policy around gendered violence and highlight the lessons and voices of those working on the frontline - we’d be grateful if you could add a review and share it widely to help us achieve this.

2. A Pioneira Casa das Mulheres no Rio
Localizada em um dos maiores complexos de favelas do Brasil, a Casa das Mulheres no Rio de Janeiro, oferece refúgio para aquelas que deixam relacionamentos abusivos em uma área onde a polícia se recusa a intervir.
A organização tem sido um santuário durante a pandemia, durante a qual muitos moradores de favelas perderam seus empregos. Além de lidar com um significativo aumento na violência doméstica, a Redes da Maré fornece trabalho e distribui alimentos para famílias que estão passando fome.
Ouvimos da fundadora da Casa das Mulheres, Eliana Sousa Silva, e de suas colegas da ONG Redes da Maré sobre as lutas e dificuldades que enfrentam as mulheres da Maré e como se adaptaram para se ajudarem e transformar sua vizinhança.
Louise Morris foi a produtora e roteirista e Renata Peppl a apresentadora.
Juliana Postico, Claudia Alves e Najlla Kay foram as dubladoras e Ella Barnes e Theodora Bradford nossas tradutoras. Você ouviu músicas de Rebeca Lane, Jonathan Panta, Rafael Rocha, Serena Assumpção e Gilberto Martins.

1. Mourning the 56 in Guatemala
On 8 March 2017, 56 girls were locked in a classroom at their state-run children’s home just outside of Guatemala City, when a fire broke out. Only 15 girls survived the blaze. Four years later, no one has been sentenced for these crimes.
We speak to members of Ocho Tijax (https://business.facebook.com/8tijax/), a women’s group caring for the girls’ families and the survivors and fighting their case in the courts. We hear about the stigma they continue to face, through attacks and the destruction of their memorial, but also about their powerful campaign #NosDuelen56 (https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/nosduelen56/) (We Mourn the 56): a global cry for justice through art.
Vianney, the mother of Ashly Angelie Rodriguez Hernandez, who lost her life in the fire, tells us about her ongoing battle for accountability for her daughter's death.
TW: This episode contains references to death and abuse and one instance of strong language.
Women Resisting Violence is presented by Renata Peppl and produced by Louise Morris.
Made through a partnership with King's College London and the Latin America Bureau. (https://lab.org.uk/)
Featuring music by Rebeca Lane.
Dubbed by Cecilia Cruz, Alma Carballo, Esmeralda Lobos and Larisa Muñoz
This episode is also available in Spanish, and a Portuguese transcription can be found on our website (https://lab.org.uk/wrv/podcast/).

1. Nos Duelen 56 en Guatemala
El 8 de marzo de 2017, 56 niñas quedaron atrapadas en un salón de clases del internado – administrado por el Estado – donde vivían, a las afueras de la Ciudad de Guatemala, cuando estalló un incendio. Solo 15 sobrevivieron. Cuatro años después, nadie ha sido sentenciado por estos crímenes.
Este episodio se enfoca en el trabajo incansable de Ocho Tijax (https://www.facebook.com/8tijax/), un grupo de mujeres que cuidan a las familias de las niñas y las sobrevivientes, además de luchar por su caso en la Corte.
Aprendemos sobre el estigma que suelen experimentar esas mujeres, en forma de ataques personales y la destrucción del memorial para las niñas. Pero también nos enseñan sobre su fuerte campaña #NosDuelen56 (https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/nosduelen56/): una acción global, un grito por la justicia desde el arte.
Vianney, la mamá de Ashly Angelie Rodríguez Hernández, quien perdió la vida en el incendio, nos cuenta sobre su continua lucha por la justicia por su muerte.
Advertencia de contenido: este episodio contiene referencias a muerte, abuso y una frase que usa lenguaje violento.
Women Resisting Violence es presentado por Renata Peppl y producido por Louise Morris.
Producido tras una colaboración entre el King's College London y el Latin America Bureau. Con la música de Rebeca Lane. Este episodio también está disponible en inglés, y se puede encontrar una transcripción portuguesa en nuestro sitio web.
