How to improve the safety and security of women victims of violence

Gender-based violence is not an isolated problem of individuals that should remain within four walls but an issue of the entire society that requires a comprehensive and networked response of all citizens. A particular responsibility is on those who, through their work and efforts, can and must contribute to providing adequate and timely assistance and support to victims of domestic and intimate partner violence, as well as ensure continuity in the fight against all forms of violence.
