WAVE is a network of over 170 European women’s NGOs in 46 European countries working towards prevention and protection of women and children from violence. They build the capacity of their members, advocate for better legislation, conduct research and raise awareness on violence against women and girls.
WAVE’s mission is to enable all women and their children to live free from violence, particularly through strengthening and sustaining a European network of women’s specialized support and prevention services, experts and survivors; to share expertise and experience to prevent, challenge, address and ultimately end male violence against women and their children, through an intersectional feminist approach.
