In this edition of Guidelines for Debate, we will be defining the concept of Gender-Based Violence, examining how it is manifested and analyzing some of its causes. Furthermore, we will offer activities to understand and debate the issue, and through these generate ideas that will help to prevent and erradicate the problem.
The aim of the series guidelines for debate is to influence the formulation, implementation and evaluation of programs and policies through guidelines that foster the debate of ideas from a progressive approach. The collection features a cool exchange of data and theoretical and methodological tools for analysis and action aimed at emerging political generations.
Violence is the intentional exercise of power in an abusive manner that causes harm, either self-inflicted or directed at others. Violence can manifest itself at distinct levels: directly, structurally and culturally.
