- Summary:
- The book 'Mujeres, calle y prohibición: Cuidado y violencia a los dos lados del Otún' explores the intersection of drug use, gender, and socioeconomic conditions affecting women in Pereira and Dosquebradas, Colombia. Through interviews with 55 women involved in harm reduction programs, the authors examine the adverse impacts of current drug policies on women's health, social conditions, and life quality. The work discusses the exacerbated misogyny these women face due to societal perceptions of female drug use as transgressive. It highlights themes such as poverty, violence, reproductive rights, and the role of harm reduction in improving their lives. The authors argue for drug policies that incorporate care-focused approaches, drawing on community experiences to propose reforms. This book is intended for scholars, policymakers, and advocates interested in gender studies, public health, and social justice. Generated by AI.
