The Council of Europe has developed a new tool for education professionals, “Checklist for Preventing Violence against Women through Formal and Informal Education” to support implementation of Article 14 of the Istanbul Convention.  

This publication provides a self-regulatory mechanism to empower educators in both formal and informal settings to play a role in ending violence against women and domestic violence. The Checklist provides a roadmap with a range of actions and activities aimed at preventing all forms of violence against women, which can be tailored to individual approaches and strategies taken by educational establishments based on their needs and resources available.

This practical tool was developed based on the Guidance, Preventing violence against women through formal and informal education: Article 14 of the Istanbul Convention which has been translated into Ukrainian.

The Checklist was developed and the Guidance were translated under the Council of Europe project "Combating Violence against Women in Ukraine – Phase II" (COVAW-II).
