Concern about remedies complements the important literature detailing the narrative experiences of those who experience violence grounded in multiple intersections of identity. This is an introduction to a set of papers that represent highlights from the conference entitled &ldquo;International Congress on Gender Violence: Intersectionalities&rdquo;. The papers address approaches to legal remedies that take into account the intersectional nature of gender violence.</p> <hr /><p>Las cr&iacute;ticas a la capacidad de los remedies legales para abordar la naturaleza interseccional de la violencia de g&eacute;nero est&aacute;n en el centro del discurso te&oacute;rico y pr&aacute;ctico.
