Event Description

COVID-19 has resulted in a shadow pandemic worldwide - that of domestic violence. Yet we do not hear many testimonies of women with disabilities. They are again not visible in official data on violence, or in social discussions of the shadow pandemic. We therefore bring to you the perspective of and on women with disabilities and the violence they are facing in their homes during this very difficult time. Domestic violence has always been an issue, and it will continue in various forms even after COVID 19, but what is important is that we see and recognise it now more urgently than ever.
