Breaking the Silence on Sexual Violence: strengthening NGO capacity to integrate sexual violence on the public agenda<\/b><\/p>\n
Why this project<\/b>:<\/p>\n
The project \u201cBreaking the Silence on Sexual Violence\u201d emerged from the need to have a more structured space to discuss sexual violence and ways to combat it among 9 NGOs promoting gender equality and advocating for ending violence against women. The idea behind of the project is to break through the taboos surrounding sexual violence in order to encourage victims to seek adequate help and report the crimes.<\/p>\n
A recent study of the Fundamental Rights Agency of the EU \u201c Violence against women: every day and in every place\u201d shows that 6% of Romanian women have been at some point in their lives victims of sexual aggression.\u00a0 Unfortunately only a small number of victims receive specialized assistance or report the crime. The difference between what authorities record and what the everyday experience of women when aggression and harassment is a routine event remains covered in silences, prejudice, shame and fear.\u00a0 It is out of this need that this project steams from and which it aims to address.<\/p>\n
