The general goal of the project is to contribute to the fighting of VAW (violence against women) in Turkey by fostering knowledge exchange between European and Turkish Civil Society Organizations (CSOs). Bearing this in mind, the action aims to familiarize target groups with EU legislation and practices, as well as providing actions/tools to prevent VAW.

The specific objectives of the project are: to increase the knowledge of the characteristics of VAW in the partner countries and enhance the exchange of policies and actions to contrast VAW among Turkey, Italy and Spain;  to improve the capabilities of CSOs through the provision of a dedicated tool kit and training

The activities foreseen by the project are the following: research, analysis and report drafting on VAW; organization of knowledge exchange meetings; advisory services; contribution to the elaboration of a toolkit; wide dissemination of project results.
