International Day of Violence against Women
This special day -International Day of Violence against Women-, we want to announce our participation in the project CyberEqual, which aims to educate and raise the awareness of young people on Cyber Violence Against Women and Girls (CVAWG) and its associated implications. More specifically, interactive activities on CVAWG will be developed. They will be complemented by a training guide to be used by youth workers, educators and other relevant professionals interested in delivering such training to young people, either through the school environment or through their organisational activities.
The objectives of the project are:
- O1: Increase of knowledge on the prevalence, legislation, awareness-raising practices and education on the issue of Cyber Violence Against Women and Girls;
- O2: Raise the awareness and educate young people, youth workers and other professionals on Cyber Violence Against Women and Girls;
- O3: Motivate girls and young women to protect themselves from Cyber Violence against them;
- O4: Equip youth workers and other professionals with the tools to educate and combat Cyber Violence Against Women & Girls.

Our survey on CVAWG is designed and implemented in the context of the project CyberEqual: Educating Youth on Cyber Violence Against Women & Girls- funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union. This survey is designed to assess the prevalence of CVAWG in Cyprus, Greece, Ukraine, Lithuania and Slovakia as well as to allow for better understanding of the experiences, challenges, and impacts on women and girls, aged 15 to 35, face in the online space. Your insights will help us raise awareness through the development of training activities aiming at combating cyber violence, and making online environments safer for everyone.
