Against the Odds - Women Resisting Political Violence in Bolivia

Political violence against women is a form of violence that has largely been ignored. However, many women across the world face violence and discrimination when they attempt to involve themselves in political life.  ‘Against the Odds’ - a new video from One World Action - explains the impact of political violence on the lives of women councillors in Bolivia, and highlights the work of One World Action's partner ACOBOL (the Asociation of Women Councillors of Bolivia) as it tries to raise awareness about political violence against women, and to end it!
