The overall goal is to contribute to strengthening the values of rule of law and legal reform in Serbia by advocating for effective implementation of the adopted Law on prevention of domestic violence. The project objectives are: to facilitate access to justice for victims of domestic violence by integrated response and prompt action of state institutions; to raise awareness and suggest models of the victims’ economic empowerment by increasing their employment potential and economic independence from their abusers; to contribute to the adequate media reporting and citizens’ attitude and behavior towards women and particularly crimes against women, so that victims receive effective support, but  not condemnation from authorities and local community.
