The transformation of society in its habits and codes of conduct can only be achieved through the prevention or re-education of these habits and the punishment of conducts contrary to the law. The first aim can be achieved through reflection from the perspective of the Administration’s social policies and through the media and work in the classroom, whereas the second aim can be achieved through criminal prosecution. The way in which these goals are achieved will lead to the transformation of these habits and to a new culture based on gender and the equality of men and women within affective relationships. This is the reason why we have joined together researchers from three very different disciplines, all of them selected by the legislator himself for social transformation in the values of equality and gender.
- Research into the concept of gender-based violence in a multidisciplinary way.
- Advice to companies on the design of the training system for their employees on gender issues.
- Training for teachers and educational centres in gender and violence; in peaceful conflict resolution.
- Protection of women victims of violence just for being women.
- Analysis and evaluation of the perception of the gender-based violence phenomenon by society, especially through the media.
- Research into the concept of gender-based violence in a multidisciplinary way
We analyse and rule all the elements that converge within the concept of gender-based violence, beyond the literal wording of the Gender-Based Violence Act.
- Analysis and evaluation of the perception of the gender-based violence phenomenon by society, especially through the media
Elaboration of regulation models on gender-based communication and violence.
- Protection of women victims of violence just for being women
Protection of women victims of violence just for being women, both in Spain and in Europe, through the so-called European Protection Order (EPO).
- Advice to companies on the design of the training system for their employees on gender issues
From the perspective of central and regional legislation, we advise on the development of plans aimed at avoiding any type of violence against women in the public and private settings.
- Training for teachers and educational centres in gender and violence; in peaceful conflict resolution
Training for primary and secondary school teachers in gender, equality and peaceful conflict resolution values between genders.
- Online violence against women
Sexting and stalking are increasingly common online crimes committed against women, but very often in affective relationships by ex-partners.
- Violence against women and disability
Violence against disabled women within and outside the couple is even more difficult to detect and eradicate. To this end, we have a line of specialisation open in this area.
