ACCESS

ACCESS is a European project aiming to facilitate access to prevention, protection and support for migrant women in Europe who are confronted with gender-based violence.

Gender is a social and cultural construct that establishes "appropriate" roles and behaviours for each sex, while sex is defined by biological differences.

Gender-based violence is physical or psychological violence against people on the basis of their gender. It affects women the most.

Migrant women face many forms of gender-based violence: sexual violence, female genital mutilation (FGM), violence between partners, forced marriage, sexual exploitation… ACCESS supports these women!
