Dear community, I received the message below earlier today from a friend, Michel, in South Africa whose asking for examples of OST being used within the women's movement for community activism around Violence against Women (VAW) or Gender-based Violence (GBV).
I know of nothing so specific, but I thought that if anyone knew, it would be someone on this list...and I would love to know myself. Looking forward to your responses!

It's been quite some time since we spoke, despite my good intentions!!! I'm playing with the idea of introducing a mix of world cafe and open space to see if we can initiate an innovative response to VAW in South Africa. I'd like to start by working with some of the partners we've already got relationships with - and I need to get people to 'buy into' what so far seems like a totally crazy idea to them. So, I'm writing to ask if you know of any examples from within the women's movement where open space was used to initiate 'community activism' around VAW or GBV - in any kind of innovative way??? Are any of these stories written up or available anywhere??? I look forward to reading more of what you have written in the last year!!! Warmly, Michel
