This photovoice (&#8216;<g id=\"gid_1\">photo-voice<\/g>&#8216;) activity aims to voice the stories of women rising from experiences of violence. Photovoice is a research method that involves participants sharing their experiences through photographs accompanied by personal narratives.  <\/p>\n<p>For Adinda, this activity is very important for sharing her story related to the violence she experienced with the public.

And I believe it is important when we share a little bit of our story so that bitter experiences can find solutions and there will not be a second bitter experience,&#8221; said Adinda.<\/p>\n<p>She added that the workshop and exhibition she participated in with 15 other participants were very interesting for understanding and acknowledging how she recovered from that bitter experience. Furthermore, sharing her story through photos and narratives became one way for her to try to reconcile and heal from the trauma. <\/p>\n<p>This photovoice activity is part of the commemoration of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence (16HAKTP) organized by PKBI Central Java, supported by the IPAS Indonesia Foundation through funding from the Government of Canada.
