Kintsugi Conversatons
Survivors West Yorkshire
Kintsugi Conversations, hosted by Niamh and Rob, is an opportunity to discuss and explore the intricacies, difficulties, and joy of being an activist. Separated by 4 decades in age, our hosts bring their own individual perspectives but share a drive to end the stigma that surrounds sexual violence and strive for better support and understanding for its victim/survivors.
From sharing personal experiences, to examining systemic challenges and societal attitudes, Kintsugi Conversations serves as a platform for candid and crucial conversations. Chatting to survivors, allies, academics, and activists across the UK and beyond, we will discuss the complexities of sexual violence, explore ways to make meaningful change, and amplify the diverse voices shaping the movement.
Through the metaphor of Kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold lacquer, Rob and Niamh highlight the beauty in healing and reclaiming one's narrative after experiencing trauma. As well
