Infographics & Guidelines for healthcare providers in responding to disclosures of violence against women and domestic violence

The WAVE office, together with CSSP partners, created Infographics and Guidelines for healthcare providers in responding to disclosures of violence against women and domestic violence.

Effective multiagency cooperation between healthcare providers and women’s specialist support services in response to disclose of domestic violence

The story of the Infographic is inspired by examples shared in the regional assessment “Cooperation between women’s NGOs and healthcare providers: a comparative study in the Western Balkans and Turkey” as part of UN Women’s regional programme on ending violence against women, “Implementing Norms, Changing Minds”. The Infographic on effective multiagency cooperation between healthcare providers and women’s specialist support services in response to disclose of domestic violence is available in English HERE.

The Infographic is translated in Albanian (Albania & Kosovo), Bosnian, Montenegrin, Serbian & Turkish.

Guidelines for healthcare providers in responding to disclosures of violence against women and domestic violence

Healthcare professionals are often the first to find out if women have experienced male violence, which is why it is important for doctors and nurses to make sure this isn’t a missed opportunity to refer patients to local women’s organisations supporting survivors of violence!

The content of this guide is based on the regional assessment “Cooperation between women’s NGOs and healthcare providers: a comparative study in the Western Balkans and Turkey” as part of UN Women’s regional programme on ending violence against women, “Implementing Norms, Changing Minds”. The Guidelines for healthcare providers in responding to disclosures of violence against women and domestic violence are available in English HERE.

The Guidelines are translated in Albanian (Albania & Kosovo), Bosnian, Montenegrin, Serbian & Turkish.
