Cocreating Awareness and Fostering Action on Violence Resilience. Urban Film-making

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Adolescents experiencing physical abuse by parents range from 20 to 25 percent internationally and in Switzerland, which significantly impacts their socio-emotional development. As part of a Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) project, the authors aimed to strengthen the resilient development of youth despite such violence. A participatory, design-based approach was applied to involve adolescents in the development process. In co-creation workshops conducted by the National Coalition Building Institute (NCBI), adolescent participants collaborated with professional video illustrators to create appealing, youth-centered video content. These videos are intended for use on social media and educational platforms to raise awareness about violence resilience, improve access to support services, and facilitate effective learning. By combining current scientific insights from resilience research with creative methods of youth engagement, the project aims to empower adolescents and produces sustainable tools for knowledge transfer. The videos are intended to inform practitioners, shape future research, and create sustainable products for science–practice transfer.
