This lecture explores the concept of informational violence and its crucial role in addressing other forms of violence, particularly those affecting women, girls, and vulnerable groups. It discusses how the lack, distortion, or inaccessibility of information can hinder the recognition of rights and access to support networks. The activity also highlights the role of libraries and cultural spaces in community building and social protection. A practical exercise will conclude the session, demonstrating how literature can help identify and confront silenced violences.
