Project CARVE (Companies Against gendeR based Violence)
About the project

 

Reasons to involve the business

 

Gender based violence (predominantely violence against women) is a widespread social plague with consequences in every area of the society. Companies are not immune: domestic violence negatively affects the professional life, productivity and safety at the workplace of women in situation of violence.
Working women spend most of their day in the company.

Thus, the workplace appears as the best (if not the only) place where their situation can be detected, and where they can find information and seek assistance.
It is therefore necessary for companies to be provided with accurate information to get a better comprehension of the issue, as well as with tools to manage it.

CARVE – Companies Against Gender Violence is the first European project addressing domestic violence committed against women from the workplace.

Indeed, despite the significant consequences of domestic violence on the professional life of both victims and offenders, companies lack recourses to deal with this issue. CARVE aims to investigate it so as to establish a global vision of the state of play, create a European Guide of Good Practices and raise awareness on gender-based violence through a European comprehensive campaign led by companies.

 

 

Project phases are:

  •  Identification of national good practices obtained through interviews of companies, NGOs, public administration and trade unions
  •  Redaction of a report highlighting national good practices
  • Organisation of a workshop In Barcelona in the last quarter of 2015 to share good practices and open a public debate
  • Creation and dissemination of a European Guide of Good Practices to support women victims of domestic violence
  •  Participation to an international seminar in Brussels in 2016

"Companies Against GendeR ViolencE (CARVE)" project (2014-2016) is funded by the DAPHNE III programme of the European Union
