Description
The project aims at reducing domestic and gender violence in Estonian society and increasing the awareness of specialists about domestic and gender violence.
Results to be achieved through project activities include include the training of at least 310 specialists who become more aware of domestic and gender violence and the related causes, consequences, possibilities for assistance, avoidance of re-victimisation, and options to enhance inter-agency cooperation.
Two training programmes (training event of six academic hours and training event of 36 academic hours) will be developed in cooperation with the project partner Association ‘MARTA Centre’ and the think tank of the project, taking into account the needs of target groups, which have been previously identified and specified. The training programmes will be tested in six regions of Estonia as part of this project, and the training programmes will be approved by the end of the project on the basis of feedback from training providers and training groups by an expert group.
The project will also include at least six outreach activities in six regions of Estonia (the same location where the training days of 6 hours take place), either as an on-site information day or remotely (e.g. via Zoom); the general public will also be informed of the project activities and results through media channels and on the website of the project at the beginning of the project, during the project, and at the end of the project.
