On November 25, 2024, a forum will be held in the Netherlands focusing on domestic violence and the mechanisms for combatting it. Organized by Stichting TIP and Vrouwen Stichting Diamant, the event will take place at Buurthuis de Horizon at 14:00. This gathering coincides with the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, recognized globally to raise awareness and call for action against gender-based violence.
The forum will address the definition and prevalence of domestic violence, the support systems available in the Netherlands, and how organizations such as "Veilig Thuis" play a role in assisting victims. "Veilig Thuis" is a national organization that provides advice, assistance, and, when necessary, intervention for those experiencing or witnessing domestic violence and abuse. Additionally, the forum will discuss resources and support mechanisms available to victims, including anonymous reporting, shelters, and legal support.
Seher Cemre Bilgin, participating as a women’s advocate and animal rights activist, will speak on behalf of TIP and not as a Veilig Thuis representative. Her role will be to address the challenges victims face and the importance of community involvement in supporting affected individuals. The event is designed to be an open, safe space for learning and discussion, where attendees can freely and anonymously participate, share insights, and engage in dialogues about how to effectively address and prevent domestic violence.
