The pandemic has made domestic violence worse, by isolating many women together with their perpetrators and making it harder for them to access classical intervention services. Thus, the communities of survivors – #\u0218iEuReu\u0219esc communities – prove ever more valuable, as they allow women to talk safely and help each other, guided by experts in combating domestic violence and providing access to psychological, social and legal assistance.<\/p>\n
The 2020\u00a0Survivors\u2019 Forum, taking place online in 25-27 November, will present the local communities in Bucharest, Sibiu, Bra\u0219ov, Satu Mare and Cluj-Napoca, which are managed by\u00a0A.L.E.G.<\/a>\u00a0and experienced local partners. We will discuss the impact of the communities so far, the efforts made to replicate this model in the Republic of Moldova with the support of UN\u00a0Women Moldova, the Coalition \u201cLife without violence\u201d and the Embassy of Sweden in Chi\u0219in\u0103u, as well as new financial empowerment activities supporting women to face the economic crisis.<\/p>\n Domestic violence is part of a broader phenomenon of violence against women, which is deeply rooted in sexism and often overlaps with other forms of discrimination, such as ethnic discrimination. Alongside Ioana Bauer, from the organization eLiberare, and Alina Ursu, a survivor who is part of the Bra\u0219ov #\u0218iEuReu\u0219esc community, on the second day of the Forum, we will tackle the issue of couple violence sometimes interweaving with organized crime and of women\u2019s courage to not only escape abusive relationships, but also the hands of traffickers.<\/p>\n The event will be live streamed on the\u00a0\u0218iEuReu\u0219esc Facebook page<\/a>, as followers will find out what this programme offers and how it helps to be part of such a community if you’ve ever faced violence. People wishing to support \u0218iEuReu\u0219esc communities will find out what are the most burning needs from the viewpoint of survivors, themselves experts through their experience.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n PROGRAMME<\/p>\n WEDNESDAY\u00a0| NOVEMBER 25th<\/strong><\/p>\n 6 p.m.-7.15 p.m. | #\u0218iEuReu\u0219esc communities in Romania<\/a><\/p>\n 7.30 p.m.-8 p.m. | Impact of #\u0218iEuReu\u0219esc in the Republic of Moldova<\/a><\/p>\n THURSDAY\u00a0| NOVEMBER 26th<\/strong><\/p>\n 4 p.m.-4.50 p.m. | Domestic violence and human trafficking – intersecting vulnerabilities<\/a><\/p>\n 5 p.m.-5.50 p.m. | Why is it important that women help each other?<\/a><\/p>\n 6 p.m.-7 p.m. | The role of psychologists and support groups<\/a><\/p>\n FRIDAY | NOVEMBER 27th<\/strong><\/p>\n 4 p.m.-4.45 p.m. | Financial independence.
