Communication activities
Through data collection and analysis about women’s specialist support services for women and girls experiencing gender-based violence, across the EU and other European regions, WAVE identifies gaps and barriers in support services and implementation of the IC and other international legal frameworks (biennial WAVE Country Report and Database on women's specialist services in 46 countries).
Online and in-person advocacy and campaigning for stronger legislative frameworks for effective prevention and tackling of violence against women and girls (VAWG) and inclusion of women's specialist services (WSS) as the experts and crucial civil society partners they are in tackling VAWG, in the drafting and implementation process of key legislative frameworks on VAWG.
Additionally, WAVE raises awareness on EU policies related to violence prevention and protection and is able to target different audiences in Europe through four social media channels (Facebook, Instagram and Twitter), the WAVE “Fempower Magazine” and periodic online actions involving the WAVE Youth Ambassadors. WAVE Youth Ambassadors raise awareness among their peers in 14 European languages and thus promote EU values on national level. On external level, the WAVE Information Centre performs an important consultation service to professionals with international questions on male VAWG (around 100 requests are processed per year). In addition, around 30-40 women survivors in international and cross-border cases are supported annually by the Information Centre. The Database accessible on the website holds a unique registry of over 1,550 vetted entries of WSS in 46 European countries, which is accessible to women experiencing male VAWG or agencies supporting them. This is an important resource for centralized and verified knowledge. All these activities result in harmonized European data collection and increased awareness on VAWG.Other activities

Meetings
Meetings
3 meetings found. Download meetings
The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
