WenDo is a form of self-defence art that extends beyond mere physical techniques. The workshop aims to teach some fundamental strategies for self-assertion and self-defence, allowing participants to explore personal boundaries, resources and tools for action and protection. The focus is on strengthening skills and capabilities that are frequently overlooked or repressed under conditions of structural violence and social inequality. The workshop is led by Mina, a feminist activist from Belgrade. With over a decade of WenDo practice, she is active in various feminist and queer collectives. Her approach integrates practical self-defence with an intersectional framework of empowerment, solidarity and collective care.
