The Way Forward Consultation Event - 3rd July 2009

End Violence Against Women invite you to this consultatin event

"Take integrated measures to prevent and eliminate violence against women" UN requirement 
The Way Forward Consultation Event: 
A Call For Action To End Violence Against Women 
On the 21 April The Mayor launched his draft violence against women strategy for London, setting out his vision for a programme of action to tackle violence against women (please see attached). 

The Child and Woman Abuse Studies Unit were commissioned by the GLA to develop the Mayor's draft strategy. End Violence Against Women is supporting this by consulting with women's organisations in London who work on violence against women about what the strategy should look like. 

After our initial VCS consultation held in January, we warmly invite you to participate in a second follow-up event on Friday 3 July. This will be a great opportunity to contribute to the final strategy's development and discuss with voluntary sector organisations how we can effectively tackle and prevent all forms of VAW across London. 

Details: 
Friday 3 July 2009, 2 - 6 pm 
Human Rights Action Centre (Amnesty UK) 
17 - 25 New Inn Yard
EC2A 3EA 

RSVP by 16 June to natalie.ntim at amnesty.org.uk. Places are limited so please book as early as possible! 

If you are unable to attend this event you can still participate in the consultation by visiting the consultation website at: http://www.london.gov.uk/mayor/crime/vaw
