FORSA aims to provide information opposing sexual
violence in public.
We respond in an appropriate manner to the scandalisation and
playing-down of attacks on the dignity of girls and women.

FORSA supports the continued activity of existing
organizations against sexual violence as well as the establishment
of new organizations.
Violence is not an isolated phenomenon; it calls for co-ordinated
and joint counter-strategies.

FORSA represents the interests of its member organizations
in co-operating with the authorities, associations and similar
establishments.
Joint strategies make it easier for us to present our interests
on a sustainable basis.

Exchanges and co-ordination mean better quality counselling. Networked
structures render the requirements placed on the organizations’
activities more transparent and more intelligible.

exchanges.
We organise meetings of specialists, as well as seminars and congresses.
New scientific knowledge is useful in improving quality assurance
in the psychosocial care provided by projects.
