These two panels were facilitated by Prof. Rita Lopez and Prof. Maria José Magalhães, respectively. In each panel, professionals from organizations that intervene in these issues commented on the CEINAV results. At the end of the first day, a first draft of the Anthology of Stories was presented as well as a trailer for the animation film “Sendas” by Dr. Raquel Felgueiras, the Portuguese Team Artist-researcher.

On the second day, Prof. Liz Kelly presented the transnational foundations for ethical practice in interventions against violence. This talk was followed by a panel on interventions against trafficking for sexual exploitation conducted by Dr. Vera Silva. Prof. Maria José Magalhães then presented on postcolonial feminism and intersectionality in interventions against violence. Finally, Dr. Raquel Felgueiras concluded the event with a presentation on the visual narratives that stemmed from the creative workshops that she and Prof. Angélica Lima Cruz conducted with survivors of violence.
The presentations during the two-day final event lead to interesting discussions and debates between participants, professionals and researchers. The general feedback was that the overall event was relevant and thought-provoking. Participants and professionals mentioned that there is a need for more opportunities to discuss intervention practices against violence and its intersection with cultural issues.
