This paper is drafted by the Gender and Poverty Group of EAPN in order to increase the awareness on gender-based violence and its effects on women’s risk of poverty across Europe, among EAPN members, but also among key stakeholders at EU and national levels and broader public. With clearer insights into the importance, scope and impacts of gender-based violence on the economic situation and wellbeing of women and their children, the advocacy and lobbying activities of EAPN related to poverty reduction and improved social inclusion, as well as policy making at EU and national levels, will be able to more precisely focus on effective policies and programs.
