Un progetto per combattere la violenza contro le donne migranti
La violenza sessuale contro le donne rifugiate e richiedenti asilo è un fenomeno drammatico in Europa e nei paesi del Mediterraneo. Organismi e istituzioni internazionali – tra cui ONU, UNHACR, Consiglio d’Europa e Parlamento Europeo – hanno richiamato l’attenzione sull’urgenza di promuovere politiche specifiche, poiché il rischio di violenze e di abusi sessuali rende le donne più vulnerabili.
Attraverso un programma di formazione e le azioni pilota, il progetto ASVARW intende sensibilizzare alla violenza sessuale basata sul genere gli operatori che lavorano, con diversi ruoli e competenze, nei centri che accolgono donne rifugiate e richiedenti asilo consapevolezza. Intende inoltre fornire strumenti per contrastarla, in particolare a coloro che hanno i primi contatti e sono i più vicini alle donne.
Venerdì 4 maggio si terrà a Bologna l’evento finale: Prevenire e contrastare la violenza sessuale contro le rifugiate e richiedenti asilo.
This Project is funded by the Rights, Equality and Citizenship (REC) Programme of the European Union
