Short description: |
Gender-based violence is a serious problem throughout the world, including EU. For example, according to Fundamental Rights Agency (2014) one in 10 women has experienced some form of sexual violence since the age of 15. According to Council of Europe until 22nd January 2022 35 countries have ratified the Istanbul Convention but still there is a huge backlash against it in some countries, e. g. in Poland. Our course aims at highlighting the prevalence of gender-based violence, its most common forms, its causes, its consequences and methods of preventing it and intervention when it already happens. |
