Goals / Remit
Violence is preventable. Therefore, the NGO Garance focusses on everything that one can do before violence emerges – to prevent that it emerges. We tackle the risk factors that make certain population groups more vulnerable for violence, particularly women and girls.
Our vision is a world where each person can live in safety (without violence or discrimination) and realise their full potential. We work according to our values (empowerment, inclusion, solidarity and participation) and principles (reliability, accountability, transparency, intersectionality).
Three major objectives guide everything we do:
- Strengthening the power and safety of women and other vulnerabilised groups
- Advocating for the primary prevention of gender-based violence
- Develop feminist self-defenceMain EU files targeted
Garance strives to promote feminist self-defence as an efficient means for the primary prevention of gender-based violence. We mostly do this on the regional and national level, but whenever an opportunity occurs, we also work with European decision makers, in particular as an active member of Women Against Violence Europe.
