Franziska Greber, "UpRooted and Apart
Attentive to the diversity of voices it welcomes, the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Museum is positioning itself as a platform for reflection and debate. In 2021/2022, it will inaugurate its first annual thematic cycle: "Gender & Diversity". In association with numerous partners from different cultural backgrounds, the Museum explores this societal theme and imagines what a feminist, inclusive and committed museum would be.
In this context, the Museum welcomes the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). On International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict on June 19 and throughout the month, the ICRC is sharing its expertise in combating sexual violence, highlighting the voices of survivors and focusing on prevention.
Together, the Museum and the ICRC present "UpRooted and Apart," a work by Swiss artist and psychotherapist Franziska Greber. Through the experiences and voices of survivors, she addresses the impact of sexual violence in times of conflict, calling for its prevention and eradication.
