Hérault: the actions of the Department for Gender Equality

The Department has just created an experimental tool with the State, the CAF and the University, theObservatory on violence against women, sexist and intrafamilial, which aims to bring together victims of violence, researchers and professionals in the sector to propose new solutions. The Department also participates in the funding of postssocial workers in police and gendarmerie stations who “welcome nearly 1,500 people every year, train, collaborate with the gendarmes and the police, sensitize partners to prevent situations of violence and support victims in their efforts“.
