vias de hecho (Col): nonviolent direct action
Many thanks to my fab compas Kath and Fiona who have had extended conversations with me about this. The term is often used to refer to blockades/barricades in particular, but is also more widely used to refer to reclaiming land, etc..
It seems to mean different things outside of Colombia, so I'd be curious to hear - does this term get used in this way much in movement circles outside of Colombia?

transversalizar: mainstream
As in, vamos a transversalizar género en esta conferencia - so as opposed to having break out sessions just on gender it's going to be discussed in all sessions (in theory). In other contexts temas transversales I also render as croscutting themes.
