Walking the Gendered (in)Visibilities of Resistance in Prishtina, Kosovo

Original language description

The five-day interdisciplinary workshop “Walking the Gender (In)visibilities of Resistance in Prishtina” brought together students, scholars, artists, and community activists for an in-depth exploration of walkability through the intersections of gender, space, memory, history, agency, and trauma in the dynamic context of Prishtina. Twenty participants, trainers and guest lecturers from Kosovo, Turkey, Iran, Syria, England, Greece, Poland, Germany, France, and Finland took part. Participants engaged in lectures, exploratory walks, creative movement, and guided writing sessions that approached walkability as both a method and a lens for uncovering suppressed or overlooked memories of gendered resistance and activism. Adopting this framework, participants examined how shared, contested, and gendered memories are made visible—or remain invisible—within Prishtina's everyday footpaths and public spaces. Building on these explorations, the workshop culminated in three group projects that produced creative multimedia maps integrating personal reflections and collective spatial experiences and memories. These works illustrated how walking and remembering together can nurture practices of presence, collective resistance, and care amid Prishtina’s post-conflict and continuously transforming urban landscape.
