As the project leader of the SURF and SOUND 2.0 project, the BaBe Association organized an initial meeting of representatives of partner organizations at its premises in Zagreb on April 25th with the aim of presenting project activities and agreeing on methods of cooperation. The project concerns the suppression of online violence against women, and is implemented from March 2023 to February 2025 in partnership with the Agency for Electronic Media, the Judicial Academy and the Police Directorate as associated partners.
The meeting presented project activities related to strengthening the capacity of experts, providing specialized support to victims, raising public awareness, and advocating for improved public policies regarding the protection of women from online violence. Among other things, educational workshops for police officers and judicial officials, multi-sectoral discussions for experts, a national campaign, and a two-day international conference are planned.
