Sexual violence and systematic violations of human rights that often occur against women is a serious and present social problem in many parts of the world, in Colombia women and girls are disproportionately affected by this overwhelming fact, it causes harm Deep and lasting, it weakens the dignity and integrity of the victims, generating a profound impact on their physical, psychological and emotional well-being, their self-esteem and their interpersonal relationships. Victims often face social pressure to forgive, especially if the perpetrator is a family member or someone close to them. It is crucial to recognize that forgiveness is not mandatory and should not be imposed from the outside. The forgiveness process is highly personal, with no specific time frame or universally correct answer. Each person must decide which approach is best suited for their own healing and recovery process. Before considering forgiveness, victims need to feel recognized and validated in their experience. Empathy and support are essential. Ultimately, forgiveness is an individual choice and should not be imposed. Each person mustdetermine which path is best suited for their emotional well-being and recovery process.
