What does accountability mean in your community or your social surroundings? What does it mean to you personally? What would you do if violence or something offensive happens among your friends, flatmates or within a group important to you? Are there ideas in your environment on how to handle experiences of sexual violence in a supportive way?
'Community Accountability’ is a concept developed by US-American organisations, such as Incite!, to hold persons accountable for their violent, oppressive behaviour. It's based on a transparent process organized by the community. It takes place without the involvement of the police and the criminal justice system in general, because they often support and perpetuate violence and oppression. Community Accountability aims to connect supportive work, prevention and educational work with political activism and perpetrator-centered methods.
