Recognizing Domestic Violence and Knowing How to Respond, maandag 7 december 2026

Domestic violence is not always visible and is not limited to physical abuse. This interactive session aims to bring women and men together to better understand domestic violence, recognize its visible and less-visible signs, and explore how individuals, communities and municipalities can respond.

The session will combine anonymous input, practical scenarios and group discussion, while ensuring that participants are never expected to disclose personal experiences.

A two-hour interactive session in English for women, men, Dutch and international residents will be given by Dr. Jayeeta Sengupta (TNO Manager Strategic Partnerships & Innovation Orchestrator) , Denny Mathew (Global Product Management), Alexandra Voinea (Software Quality Lead) . 

Admission is free, but registration is required! This workshop is offered by FemPions.
