No woman should ever feel ashamed for being a victim of violence.
Shame belongs to the abuser.
Yet, many women stay silent.
Only 1 in 8 women in the EU report violence to the police.
Out of fear they won’t be believed.
Out of fear for their safety.
Out of shame.

We must protect and support survivors.
We must trust women – and empower them to speak up.
Read the EU’s most comprehensive report on gender-based violence.
Know the facts, break the silence, and bring justice to victims.
