In the exercise “Who is the victim of domestic violence?”, an attendant said: “People with disabilities can easily become the victims of domestic violence because they are physically vulnerable, lack of self-defense and live dependently on others. They can hardly fight against violence.”

The attendants were presenting their work

At the end of the afternoon, the attendants were divided into groups. Each group had to draw a picture of domestic violence. The result of the task was many drawings of different kinds of violence: a father used violence on his child because the child did not study hard, a husband beat his wife in a drunken stupor, etc. Most of them gave a sense of darkness and sorrow. In this exercise, all of the groups shouted out the slogan “Happiness is when there’s no violence”.
