- Description
- This report of GREVIO evaluates laws and policies on violence against women in the Netherlands. It describes different measures that have been taken to build a set of policies and services to help victims of domestic violence. The report argues that, under the Istanbul Convention, all forms of violence against women require a holistic approach in the form of prevention, protection of victims and prosecution. It notes that sexual assault, rape, forced marriage and other forms of violence against women are less prominently addressed through law and policy - and even less so on the basis of a gendered approach. The Istanbul Convention requires a gendered understanding of rape to better capture the many ways in which women experience sexual violence - most of which do not involve force, threat or coercion.

- Description
- This brochure of the Council of Europe provides answers on questions about the Convention on Preventing and Combating Violence against Women and Domestic Violence (the Istanbul Convention). Since 2014, the Istanbul Convention is a European legal instrument to prevent and combat violence against women and domestic violence as a violation of human rights. The publication describes the aims of the Istanbul Convention, its added value and its application. It also explains the Convention's notion of 'gender-based' violence, eliminating gender stereotypes in education and the non-discrimination principle regarding gender identity.
