This edition invites participants to explore writing as a shared practice, weaving together memory, silence, and possibility. Through collective exercises, discussions, and personal exploration, participants will deeply engage with the written word as a tool for connection and political imagination.

In the words of Marta Echaves: “The practice of writing is a state of listening and a ritual of memory. Writing is a conversation with those who are no longer here; it is giving breath to rumors and kept secrets. It is a political desire to restore silenced legacies and to articulate possibilities for telling stories that have left no trace in official accounts. Writing is seen as a choreography of contact, an effort to draw closer to others and to be traversed by the desires and languages of others. As if words could become a nest, writing invites us to discover a way of being together.”
