As part of Poulomi Basu’s exhibition Phantasmagoria, this event focuses on the experiences of refugee women in Switzerland. The emphasis is on forms of self-empowerment and active expressions of solidarity against discrimination, structural violence and social inequality. Women from Brava share their own experiences and draw attention to the lack of social participation and everyday forms of resistance. An evening devoted to perspectives that are often ignored – raising important questions about visibility and belonging as experienced by Switzerland’s diasporas.
The event is a collaboration with the NGO Brava and is part of the campaign 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence.
Participants: Fatma Leblebici, Safiyo Hussein Abdi and Fatma Sarikus
Moderation: Lea Riedener, Brava
Admission is free.
The event will take place in German.
