ActionAid

ActionAid
ActionAid works to promote the respect of women’s rights by preventing and combating violence against women in all its forms at national, European, and global levels.Gender-based violence against women is a serious violation of human rights and takes many forms including physical, sexual, psychological, or economic suffering, threats of violence and the restriction or arbitrary deprivation of freedom. Violence against women is a structural problem common to all countries of the world and to all social groups, regardless of culture, religion, wealth, and development.
Women’s economic empowerment
Lack of or limited economic independence prevents many women to leave abusive and violent relationships. Economic empowerment programmes aims to support women survivors to gain or regain access to economic opportunities and resources including employment, services, and income.
ActionAid works to strengthen and support national institutions, anti-violence centres, NGOs, and private sector actors to promote long-term economic empowerment of women survivors of violence.
