The persistence of violence against women requires investments in ambitious, innovative and sustainable actions to protect female victims of violence. The EUROsociAL+ Programme has joined the commitment, supporting the implementation of the New National Plan for a life free of gender violence in Uruguay, from a line of work based on intervention with male aggressors to prevent recidivism and foster their re-socialisation.

Within this framework, the international seminar “Challenges and proposals for intervention with men who exercise gender-based violence” will take place on 9 December, organised by the National Institute of Women of Uruguay (InMujeres-MIDES), with support from the Uruguayan Agency for International Cooperation (AUCI), and the EUROsociAL+ Programme.

The event was opened by the director of InMujeres, Mónica Bottero, and cooperation representatives Claudia Romano for the AUCI, and Markus Handke for the Delegation of the European Union in Uruguay.

Three experts will present the good practices and lessons learned from various intervention programmes with men who commit violent acts against their partners
