Domestic violence affects millions of people. It is rooted in patriarchal structures and norms, takes various forms. Much has been achieved but help and support are often hard to find, and the violence is not decreasing. This is where StoP starts.
StoP builds on community organizing and addresses the space and place where domestic violence often occurs. It is a process of coming together, raising awareness and building strong networks. Community Organizing successfully brings about social change by educating, empowering and mobilising communities to take action.
Preventing and ending domestic violence is urgent and possible. StoP offers eight steps - practical and scientifically proven - to help win this fight. They form the core of the toolbox: resources are provided for each step. Let’s take action - join the StoP community!
