Born of war in Colombia: Reproductive violence and memories of absence
Abortion access and Colombia's legacy of civil war: Between Reproductive Violence and Reproductive Governance

In the mid of escalating state repression, a discursive struggle has materialized, assigning meanings to new sexual identities, problematizing t…
