Conference "Multidisciplinary approach to preventing and combating domestic violence"

By Jasminko Bijelić  Published On 27/11/2023
Violence, prevention, togetherness... are the key words of the conference "Multidisciplinary approach to preventing and combating domestic violence" which was also attended by representatives of the Information Center for Persons with Disabilities "Lotos" from Tuzla.
 
The two-day conference was held on 21 and 22 November 2023 in Sarajevo, organized by the Gender Centre of the Government of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The messages from this important event linked the conference programme and recent cases of violence against women. women, 10 of which were fatal, and emphasized the need to change social norms and power relations between men and women and establish protection measures against violence. The importance of cooperation between different sectors for establishing prevention and treatment mechanisms with a focus on women and children was particularly emphasized, in accordance with the recommendations of the Council of Europe Committee on Preventing and Combating Violence against Women and Domestic Violence. The conference paid special attention to the Istanbul Convention, presented the strategic framework of the FBiH in this area, and presented the practices, problems and successes of multidisciplinary teams in all cantons in the FBiH in preventing and responding to domestic violence. In order to strengthen cooperation between institutions, civil society organizations and other stakeholders in the process of preventing and treating cases of violence, attention was drawn to the importance of including persons with disabilities and partnering with organizations of persons with disabilities and recognizing the needs of persons with disabilities in cases of violence against these persons. This was particularly important for our participation and presence at the conference, and for the future role that persons with disabilities should play in these processes. In this sense, on the day of the conference, the activists of our association in Gradačac performed the play: "Personal stories" in the forum-theater, wanting to use real experiences to evoke cases of violence against these people and in this way to talk about violence against women with disabilities in particular. Due to life without "privileges" which are an implied right for most people, low social visibility, dependence on the support of other persons and related other types of dependence, coercion of certain behavior of persons with disabilities and especially women with disabilities is still not recognized as violence.
The problem of violence in these cases is further complicated by the failure to recognize the needs of persons with disabilities, inadequate treatment or complete failure to respond by competent authorities in cases of violence against this population group. Therefore, we hope that our participation will further encourage the creation of mechanisms and measures that will be equally accessible to all citizens and include persons with disabilities as stipulated in the Istanbul Convention and the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
