Ending physical and digital violence against women and girls |
|
|
|
The UN focuses this year's campaign on gender-based violence in the digital realm, a serious and rapidly growing threat that seeks to silence the voices of many women – especially those with a strong public and digital presence in fields such as politics, activism, or journalism. We at Efus wholeheartedly support this campaign. (Photo ©iStock Xavier Lorenzo) |

Mental health: let's talk on our Safer Together group |
|
Mental health is a growing matter of concern for local authorities across Europe. An increasing number of citizens are reporting feeling depressed, anxious, or other mental health troubles, and this has an impact on many aspects of society including urban security. This is why we decided to join as partners the Respect to Protect European project. 🎙️We are also preparing a podcast episode on this all-important issue. >> Would you like to share your experience, practices or concerns on mental health?
>> Let's exchange on our Safer Together LinkedIn Group. |
