Feasibility study to assess the possibilities, opportunities and needs to standardise national legislation on violence against women, violence against children and sexual orientation violence
The information was last updated in 2013 and may not accurately represent the present situation. It makes a reference to the United Kingdom as a member of the European Union and was published before the UK's withdrawal from the European Union on the 31 January 2020.
The central aim was to provide a coherent analysis of the need for possibilities of and potential hurdles to standardised national legislation across three fields of violence: violence against women, children and sexual orientation violence. Within this, the research was to identify which EU instruments could be employed towards the harmonisation of the laws.
