MagDA – 2nd edition

Dear reader,

Welcome to the second edition of MagDA – the Magazine of Dialogue Academy. Released during the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, this edition takes a stand against the many forms of violence affecting women and men across our communities.

Together, we tackle the physical, psychological, social, structural, and institutional forms of violence and challenges encountered by both women and men. In addition, we explore how norms and structures can both fuel and sustain gender-based violence, and how, by understanding these layers, we can collectively work toward change.

In this edition, through articles, illustrations, and poetry, we present the work of young people from both societies on topics from societal expectations and body image to the systemic barriers in laws and policies meant to protect.

We hope this edition inspires reflection and solidarity, reminding us of the power we hold to challenge gender-based violence and to build a more just, compassionate world for everyone.

In solidarity and strength,
The MagDA Team
