Abstract

Structural violence has a profound psychological impact on Venezuelan college students, leading to increased levels of stress, anxiety, depression, and hopelessness. This study investigated the psychological impact of structural violence on individuals and served as the basis for the collaborative action on transmedia human rights (CATHR) program design as a peaceful disruptive methodology to counteract violence. The CATHR program is an interdisciplinary educational strategy based on a challenge-based learning framework that fosters civic commitment, democratic values, the defense of human rights, and socio-environmental awareness. The study found that the CATHR program was effective in reducing stress, anxiety, depression, and hopelessness in college students. The study also found that the CATHR program empowered learners to resist and overcome the challenges they face. This chapter highlights the importance of addressing structural violence and its psychological consequences to promote the well-being of individuals and communities worldwide.
