Women can be in fatal danger in their own homes.

More action is needed!

more #EUfunding opportunities for projects to #SayNoStopVAW are COMING SOON
as part of the CERV (Citizens, Equality, Rights & Values) Programme
Stay tuned to @EU_Justice for updates!
Commissioner for Equality @helenadalli visited Sexual Assault Centre @ChuSaintPierre in Brussels to learn more about their work.
Projects like these are vital for combatting violence against women on-the-ground.

We expect the IT companies who did not perform as well in 2022 compared to 2021 to promptly address the reasons for the slowdown.
We urge the IT companies who did better to keep up the good work.
There must be #NoPlace4Hate & we say no to #OnlineHateSpeech!
EU Code of Conduct on illegal #OnlineHateSpeech
2022 evaluation report shows:
☹️Most IT companies ➡️ slowdown on removal & review times for hate speech notifications
🙂All of them ➡️ improved frequency & quality of feedback to users flagging hateful content

Today’s #TransDayOfRemembrance is even more relevant following the shooting at an LGBTIQ bar in #Colorado.
It is a stark reminder that we are not safe to be who we are, in many parts of the world.
No one should have to live in fear because of who they are.
