The Ministry of Family, Women, Childhood, and Elderly organized an international conference under the theme “The role of social structures in the prevention of violence against women”.
Amel Moussa Belhaj, Minister of Family, Women, Childhood, and Elderly, expressed during her intervention that efforts in the fight against violence are insufficient.
“We are unhappy with the efforts made to fight violence against women because the preventive side has not insisted on the necessity to eradicate normalization with violence against women … Limited on the support of women after being subjected to violence, ”she said.
In addition, Moussa Belhaj emphasized that the complaints received from the ministry experienced an increase since 5,000 calls were received in 2022, of which 800 women were victims of violence, and the husband was the party behind the violence in the order of 80 %.
