Safe space
This European Conference for the elimination of violence again women will be a time for naming and denouncing the violence suffered by women. The content may trigger trauma or make some attendees uncomfortable. Of course you can leave the auditorium or room at any time.
There will be a safe space at the venue. This is a space where you can go if you need to, a calm place where you can take some time out or where you can talk to someone trained in sexist and sexual violence. Where you can find an attentive and sympathetic ear if you need it. A team of volunteers will also be present throughout the event, available to accompany you if you wish.
