Porto Metropolitan Command of the Police Force marks the five years of the Information Office and Victim Support Centre in Porto (GAIV) with the seminar on Domestic Abuse and Gender Equality, to be held on April 3, at the auditorium of Almeida Garrett Municipal Library. 

The event is scheduled to start at 2 pm and it is jointly organised by Porto City Hall. The fundamental goal is to encourage debate and discussion in the community around the issues of abusive relationships, patterns of violence and the way the victims of this abuse live.

Experts of several institutions that deal with this problem on a daily basis will share their practices to tackle domestic violence and what can be done about it.

Entrance to the seminar is free but seating is limited and subject to availability.

Registration must be done via email violenciadomestica.porto@psp.pt.
