On the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women 2019, FEMM will hold a Hearing devoted to analyse the state of play of violence against women (VAW) in the EU and to exchange best practices to combat it.

The event will start with an overview of the international legal instruments in fighting VAW. It will continue with a session taking a closer look at specific cases of the Member Statesʹ actions fighting VAW. The hearing will include the launch of EIGE's 'Guide to risk assessment and risk management of intimate partner violence against women for police'.
