Prevention, since we must make the politics and the society aware of this increasing problem by enhancing two possible actions through the awareness-raising campaigns and the fighting of the sexist and gender stereotypes. Courage, since we must put down the silence of women who must report the violence ”. That's what the Regional Councilwoman said during the discussion that preceded the approval of the four-year plan.
