Online workshops on implementing the project “Raising awareness on the Istanbul Convention and other gender equality standards in Azerbaijan” were held at Baku State University from 16 to 17 June 2021.
The project “Raising awareness of the Istanbul Convention and other gender equality standards in Azerbaijan” is a joint action under the European Union and Council of Europe’s programme Partnership for Good Governance II (PGG II).
This project aims to raise awareness on the Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence (Istanbul Convention) and other gender equality standards in Azerbaijan, in order to strengthen domestic legislation and policies to align them with European standards. The Istanbul Convention is widely recognised as one of the main legal standards and the most comprehensive international treaty to tackle violence against women and domestic violence (VAW/DV), which is a serious violation of the human rights of women. In this line, the project also aims to provide support to the Azerbaijani authorities in their path towards signature and ratification of the Istanbul Convention.
