Are you concerned by domestic violence or do you know someone who has suffered domestic violence?
Domestic violence is not a private matter and must not be tolerated. It is omnipresent, regardless of age, origin, social status, culture or religion.
Domestic violence is violence perpetrated or threatened within the family, couple or shared household. The term domestic violence is used even if the family or couple is already separated or the relationship has been dissolved.
Domestic violence generally takes place in one's own home, which should be a place of safety and security. The victim of violence and the perpetrator are linked by an emotional relationship. There is a balance of power that is exploited. Children are very often involved in domestic violence. On the one hand, they witness domestic violence, and on the other, they are victims of violence themselves. Children are always involved in domestic violence within the family, regardless of whether they are the direct or indirect victims of violence. These children are exposed to a great psychological burden.
Domestic violence can take many forms: physical, psychological, sexualized, social or economic.
