5 December 2024, 11:45 – 16:45 CET

Klagenfurt, Austria

co-organised with the AKG – the Working Group for Equal Treatment Issues

Dedicate a day to enhancing your institutional responses to gender-based violence with the GenderSAFE workshop, “Addressing Gender-Based Violence in academia using the 7P framework”. This five-hour session will provide participants with a comprehensive understanding and practical tools to address gender-based violence holistically in their institutions. Following the presentation of the 7P model – Prevalence, Prevention, Protection, Prosecution, Provision of services, Partnerships, and Policies, attendees will learn to develop action plans tailored to their institution’s specific needs. Suitable for gender equality officers, HR personnel, and (….,) this workshop combines presentations with interactive exercises, fostering a collaborative approach to refining and implementing policies addressing gender-based violence. This training promises to be an experience that bridges the gap between knowledge and action.
