A European Approach To Ending Violence Against Women And Domestic Violence

IIEA Talks

In this IIEA event, which has been organised to mark International Women's Day, an expert panel shares their perspectives on the recently agreed EU Directive to combat Violence Against Women and Domestic Violence. The panel discusses the various measures contained within the Directive and assesses whether the Directive goes far enough in placing enough onus on EU Member States to tackle violence against women. Speakers at this event include: • Frances Fitzgerald MEP, Member of the European Parliament, Rapporteur for the Directive • Sarah Benson, CEO, Women’s Aid • Rachel Morrogh, CEO, Dublin Rape Crisis Centre
