Περιγραφή – Περίληψη

GBV is a complex phenomenon that exists in many different forms and may be experienced within family and intimate relationships, in public spaces and workplaces, as well as online. Recent reports on the short-term and the long-term effects of the pandemic suggest that gender-based violence (GBV) and domestic violence (DV), especially against women and vulnerable groups of people, has increased in countries where stay-at-home and restrictive measures have been adopted in response to it. Eradicating all forms of GBV is thus a global responsibility. Various organizations (governmental and non-governmental) involved in GBV prevention and they adapted adapt their methods and framework of outreach and service provision both to cope with
the potential increase in VAW and to continue to offer services within the limits of government-imposed pandemic response measures.The present report is divided into four parts, taking into consideration what has happened in Greece, Iceland and Norway regarding the implications that the measures for Covid-19 have had on the topic of gender-based violence. It is examined how GBV has changed during pandemic, since 2020 to the present, giving emphasis on official and empirical data and trends in each country separately, as well as on how different groups have been
impacted by the pandemic. Additionally, the institutional framework and policy responses to pandemic are being presented regarding GBV in each country, as well as how feminist academics, NGOs, etc. responded to the policies taken, including the criticisms and suggestions that have been mentioned by them. The public debate in Greece, Iceland and Norway on GBV is analysed, pointing out the main actors involved in the public discussion. Also, it is described how the social movements responded to the challenges of GBV during Covid-19. Finally, basic conclusions and proposals are discussed in order to mitigate the issues arising out of gender-based violence during pandemic times.
