The cycle of seven seminars “Training courses on equal rights and gender violence today” which were held in the Giovanni Grasso room of the Province of Avellino ended. An intense path that started in early September and ended last week, a training course that involved about one hundred professionals from various sectors from lawyers, law enforcement, teachers, university students, psychologists, social workers, doctors and operators in the sector.

Important collaborations have begun with the judiciary, the Order of Lawyers, law enforcement agencies, Psychotherapy Centers and all Irpinia Anti-Violence Centers.

This network that has begun to be built is supported by the various municipalities concerned, in particular by that of Avellino, by the Provincial Administration, and above all by the Prefecture of Avellino, in the person of Ester Fedullo, head of cabinet, who created the "Protocol of Understanding for the promotion of shared strategies aimed at preventing and combating the phenomenon of violence against women ".

The phenomenon of violence against women is, unfortunately, a social emergency also in Irpinia, still very submerged for fear of the victims themselves even to talk about it, even more to report it. Yet in support of a path of emancipation and liberation of the offended, violated, persecuted woman, much has been done and much more is in the process of being done. The meetings talked about the phenomenon of gender-based violence and its spread in Irpinia and we discussed various experiences and skills, to build a network that allows us to tackle the problem more effectively and solve problems and limitations together. they can live daily.
