Workshop in Kutaisi on Women’s Support and Safety Issues

A workshop was held at the Women’s Fund “Sukhumi” office in Kutaisi on the topic: “Identifying, Supporting, and Responding to Domestic Violence Against Women in Local Communities.” The meeting was attended by 10 women.

The aim of the workshop was to provide participants with information that would help them recognize different forms of violence, understand ways of support, and access relevant services. Special attention was paid to the mechanisms that help women protect themselves as well as support other women.

The meeting became a space for open discussion, sharing experiences, and listening to one another. The discussion once again showed that violence is not manifested only in physical form and often reveals itself through invisible signs as well. Participants particularly emphasized that such meetings give them knowledge, confidence, and help them see more clearly what to pay attention to when identifying violence.

The project is implemented with the support of CISU
