FRA is carrying out research among network members on victims’ rights and support services with a focus on people with disabilities living in institutions.
The first results show that violence against people with disabilities in institutions is a subject matter rarely reflected in law and policies in the Member States.
FRA, together with the network, facilitated a workshop to discuss needs, gaps and challenges for Member States in ensuring rights and protection for particularly vulnerable victims.
The event ran from 14 to 15 May in Larnaca.
