Every 9 November<\/strong> communities around the world come together in celebration of sexual and bodily rights as human rights<\/strong>, as part of the\u00a0One Day One Struggle! campaign<\/strong> (ODOS),\u00a0<\/strong>coordinated by the Coalition for Sexual and Bodily Rights in Muslim Societies <\/a>(CSBR).<\/p>\n

By highlighting the pressing political developments impacting sexual and bodily rights across our local and national contexts, the campaign demonstrates that sexuality is a site of political struggle and seeks to build solidarity across constituencies to support everyone\u2019s right to choose freely on matters of sexuality, fertility, bodily autonomy, gender identity and self expression.<\/div>\n

In 2018, actions will take place across Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia,\u00a0 Pakistan, the Philippines, and Tunisia.<\/p>\n

Bandhu Social Welfare Society is organizing a day-long workshop on Art Therapy for Self-Expression & Peer Support<\/strong>,\u00a0 that will bring together young community members (aged 15 – 20) from the Youth & Transgender\/Hijra network to explore the power of art therapy as a tool for self-expression, self-healing & self-discovery.<\/p>\n

Art and the therapeutic creative process of creating art can be incredibly useful for young people who may have experienced bullying or trauma, as it can provide a safe sanctuary to share our feelings and emotions. Throughout the day, participants will explore various mediums, including different kinds of painting (watercolour, pastels, body paints) & craft-making–linking each activity to personal reflection around sexual and bodily autonomy.<\/p>\n

Participants’ creations will be documented and shared within the network. Bandhu will host the workshop in collaboration with community artists & also representatives from UNICEF.<\/p>\n
