Access to information about organizations that provide support and advocacy to respond to gender-based violence (GBV) is crucial because, in addition to safety, women can take concrete steps to protect their rights and integrity. At the national level, there are three large networks that bring together organizations in the field of GBV:
National Coalition "Life without violence" – forum of GBV service providers, public associations and public institutions. Established in 2014, it was registered as a legal entity in 2022. The 27 non-governmental organizations and public institutions, members of the Coalition, contribute to preventing and combating violence through: legal assistance, psychological and social support, programs for abusers , offering community-level rehabilitation services, advocacy initiatives, public and authorities awareness. Within the coalition, there are members who provide services at the national level, but also regionally or locally.
