A video exhibition on show at the EESC highlights the frightening reality of female survivors of violence in Europe.

The virtual exhibition, entitled "Voices of Violence", consists of a series of ten short videos by the Danish Cultural Institute in which Danish, Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian actresses give voice to anonymous stories and reveal the marks and scars these experiences have left on women across borders. The idea is that listening and understanding are the first steps towards taking action and triggering change.

The exhibition will run from 13 July to 31 August. The launch will take place online during the EESC's July plenary session, in connection with the adoption of the EESC opinion on Combating violence against women. 

A word of warning: some viewers may find some of the content of these videos disturbing or upsetting.
