Abstract

Room to Read’s online reading platform, Literacy Cloud, positions itself as a digital literacy resource committed to promoting inclusive and gender-equal learning for children. This study examines how gender equality is represented in stories tagged under the “Gender Equality” category on the platform. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, the study analyzes all 19 stories listed under this tag, with particular attention to thematic content related to gender representation. The findings reveal notable inconsistencies between the platform’s stated mission and its content categorization practices. Of the 19 stories examined, only six meaningfully promote gender-equal values in ways that are accessible to children. Eleven stories contain no identifiable gender-related themes, while one story reinforces traditional gender roles despite being classified as a gender-equality text. These results point to a critical issue of misclassification rather than content scarcity, suggesting that current tagging practices may obscure—rather than facilitate—access to genuinely gender-inclusive narratives. The study underscores the importance of accurate curation and rigorous editorial oversight in digital literacy plat-forms that seek to advance gender equality.

Abstract

This study examines the representation of gender-based violence (GBV) and its aftermath in Broken Strings (2025) by Aurélie Moeremans, with particular focus on child grooming and the narrative construction of “healing” or recovery. This is a descriptive qualitative study, with the analysis grounded in feminist theoretical frameworks. The findings reveal that abuse in the memoir unfolds as a gradual and processual form of violence, characterized by manipulation, coercion, and the erosion of agency. The narrative further demonstrates how silencing is actively produced through psychological control, while failures of institutions, family, and media contribute to the persistence of harm. As the text progresses, a tonal shift toward healing and self-reclamation positions recovery as the primary form of resolution. However, this emphasis simultaneously exposes the absence of accountability, as the perpetrator remains unpunished and institutional justice inaccessible. The study argues that while the memoir foregrounds survival and resilience, it also reflects a broader tendency within GBV narratives to displace responsibility onto survivors. In doing so, Broken Strings highlights the tension between recovery and justice, raising critical questions about how violence is ultimately resolved within contemporary survivor discourse.
