On 21 March 2017 Policy department organised a workshop on: Grassroots of the Istanbul Convention: experiences shared on collection of data on violence against women. The Istanbul Convention contains measures to prevent violence against women and girls, protect victims and punish perpetrators. While the discussions are ongoing on the level of the Council about the scope of the EU accession to the Convention, the EP would like to address data collection on Member States’ level.
