WEBINAR – ADdRESSING SEXUALIZED VIOLENCE IN SWISS CLUBS, with helvetiarockt
27 November, online
This free webinar with Grace Goodwin, researcher in gender equality in music and founder of GENIE (Gender Equality Networks in Europe), Hazbi Avdiji, project officer Helvetiarockt and Letizia Carigiet, project officer Helvetiarock and co-author of the report, will dive into the report, which examines the specific support music clubs and festivals need to effectively combat sexualized violence. They will explore how these venues, central to cultural and social life, often lack the resources and training required to address and prevent such issues. In addition to the Swiss findings, they will discuss potential solutions emerging from Switzerland, as well as insights from similar studies across Europe that highlight diverse approaches to promoting equality and safety in the cultural sector.
