There have been 81 femicides since the beginning of the year - almost one woman every 3 days
7 million women have experienced physical or sexual violence in their lifetime -40% of public abortion facilities have more than 80% of medical and nursing staff who declare themselves as conscientious objectors.
1 out of 3 Italians do not consider violence to force their partner into sexual intercourse if they do not feel like it.
27% of Italians believe that LGBTQIA+* people should not have equal rights.

Why an Italian Feminist Fund

There is a large gender equality gap between Italy and the rest of Europe, and our indicators are worsening. Strong cultural stereotypes characterise our country, where the female employment rate is the lowest in Europe. In addition to this, Italy faces a growing, worrying wave of male violence against women, fierce discrimination against LGBTQI+ people, and a constant struggle for the full recognition of the reproductive rights of Italian women and girls.
