For Professionals

We believe that collective action to end gender-based violence must involve a collaborative approach

We believe that collective action to end gender-based violence must involve a collaborative approach between professionals in health, social services, education, law enforcement, non-profit organisations and government bodies.

Social workers, housing officers, health professionals, educators or police officers may be the first person to whom a femme ever discloses her experiences of abuse. Those likely to come into contact with survivors must know how to respond appropriately and help women and girls access specialist services.
