Although intimate partner violence affects all social groups, migrant women and women from ethnic minorities are in a particularly vulnerable situation. These women are especially vulnerable to violence and often face multiple forms of discrimination.
The overall objective of the project is to develop tools (a training kit, a European guide, basic benchmarks, and a decision tree, etc.) that will enable frontline actors to help women who are victims of violence, but also society as a whole (victims, witnesses, perpetrators, ...), to discover the norms that underlie intimate partner violence and to adopt social change that is more conducive to gender equality.
This 5-module training course will give you a better understanding of this concept. A certificate of completion will be issued at the end of the course. Start watching this MOOC now on an emerging topic that is essential to the prevention of violence against women.
You can take this course whenever you want, in any order you choose.
