Reem Alsalem’s keynote speech from Safeguarding Survivors Webinar

On 12 September, FiLiA Hague Mothers, GlobalARRK, Sanctuary for Families, and Revibra Europa held a sell-out webinar which looked at the challenges facing mothers and their children who are caught up in the Hague Abduction Convention. You can now watch the keynote speech of UN Special Rapporteur on Violence against Women and Girls, Reem Alsalem on our Youtube channel, who spoke of the inequality of arms faced by victim-survivors in these cases, and the the ‘multi-layered violence that has yet to enter the collective conscience of the international community as a human rights issue’.
