parliaments, governments, local and regional authorities and non-governmental
organisations.It is an issue that
concerns us all, men and women alike. It
is time to break the silence.
We members of the parliaments of
Council of Europe member states, together with the members of the parliaments
enjoying observer status with the Parliamentary Assembly, undertake to use all
the means at our disposal to condemn domestic violence, mobilise our
governments, foster awareness among our fellow citizens and promote changes in
the law, in accordance with Council of Europe standards.We therefore express our full support for the
Council of Europe Campaign "Stop domestic violence against
women".
