DISCUSSIONS ON FEMALE BODIES, VIOLENCE AND THE COVID-19

ABSTRACT

Distance work in school institutions are now a reality in Brasil since the Covid-19 pandemic announcement made by WHO. Certainly, all subjects went from in-class courses to online courses. However, several questions beyond the formal teaching curricula need to now be addressed online, specifically themes related to bodies. We are caught in a pandemic that collects dead bodies, sometimes due to the effects of the virus, sometimes due to its side effects, such as domestic violence. We aim, through a decolonial biogeographic frontier perspective of discussion - to understand how women/girls and their bodies have been suffering from this atypical period. Have we prepared our students to be able to access knowledge and also interpret the social effects that social isolation has brought to each one of us? How have female bodies been marked, what are the effects of silencing in the face of emerging issues such as nd violence?
