Tiffany Kohl reads from "Stories Of Conflict And Love"

Bogotá entrepreneur Tiffany Kohl reads an excerpt from Roxanne Krystalli's blog "Stories of Conflict and Love" at the FEMALE CHARACTERS event on International Women's Day in Bogotá, March 8, 2018. Roxanne is a researcher and humanitarian practitioner who works on issues of gender, violence, and armed conflict. She has written extensively on the ongoing peace process in Colombia. Her professional work unfolds at the intersection of gender, violence, and transitional justice. Roxanne’s PhD research analyzes the politics of victimhood in Colombia, where she asks what the status of ‘victim’ means to those who vie for it, refuse it, contest it, or accord it. Her pursuits are united by a commitment to shedding light on why and how some lives are made less grievable, with implications for people’s experiences of (in)security, (in)justice, and peace.
