The second video explores spaces of resistance built by those directly affected—spaces for dialogue, mutual support, joy, and collective creation.

The video highlights creative practices, the unlearning of competitive paradigms, and the importance of cultivating spaces of solidarity, care, and dignity as a foundation for collective resistance.
