Finding the "Me" for Building the "We": Building Community Based Support Groups for Survivors of Violence Against Women

  • Roselle Leah K. Rivera

Abstract

The paper discusses what feminist action research is all about and how this was used to enable VAW survivors to see themselves not as mere victims but as persons with the power to transform themselves into agents of self redemption and active members of a VAW support group and/or anti-VAW advocacy formation.
