Women Support Centers in the campaign of 16 active days

Women Support Centers actively participated in the 16-day campaign against gender-based violence.

At the initiative of the mobilizers, active discussions were held on topical issues: gender stereotypes, gender-based violence, early marriages and their negative consequences, services for the assistance of violence victims, family conflicts and ways to prevent them...

Information leaflets and posters were distributed to all ten Women Support Centers. Activities were carried out with the involvement of local structures.

Film screenings, discussions, master classes, information meetings, debates in clubs, exhibitions of paintings, 34 events of various formats were held in frames of the campaign. The 16-day campaign covered more than 40 towns and villages and involved more than 300 people.

Women Support Centers once again reminded the public that domestic violence is a universal problem and that joint efforts and integrated approaches are cessary to solve this problem.

The project is implemented with the support of the organization Brot
