Una instalación de vídeo que se muestra en el CESE destaca la terrible realidad de las supervivientes de la violencia en Europa.
La exposición virtual, titulada «Voices of Violence», consiste en una serie de diez vídeos cortos del Instituto Danés de Cultura en los que actrices danesas, estonias, letonas y lituanas dan voz a historias anónimas y revelan las marcas y cicatrices que estas experiencias han dejado en mujeres a través de las fronteras. La idea es que escuchar y comprender son los primeros pasos para actuar y provocar un cambio.
La exposición en línea estará disponible del 13 de julio al 31 de agosto de 2021. La inauguración tendrá lugar en línea durante el pleno del CESE de julio, en relación con la aprobación del Dictamen del CESE sobre la lucha contra la violencia contra las mujeres.
Se advierte que algunos de los contenidos de estos vídeos pueden herir la sensibilidad del espectador.
