VAW in the Workplace: The Unspoken Words

VAW: The Unspoken Words is a collection of short films featuring free-verse poetry and images expounding various forms of Violence Against Women or VAW. The collection is intended to become a springboard for discussing the realities and complexities of VAW which to this date, still often go unnoticed, if not trivialized or dismissed. The first set of videos were released by the PCW in 2017, during the 18-Day Campaign to End VAW.

VAW in the Workplace is a story of an office-based worker who almost fell prey on her supervisor’s sexual advances. The video reveals the horrors of unequal power relations in an office setting and how it strikes the personhood of an employee.
