Victims of crime often face significant challenges in accessing their rights, frequently navigating a system that is more focused on the offender than on victim’s protection and recovery. Key challenges include secondary victimization, lack of information about rights and procedures, and limited access to support services. In order to tackle such challenges, the project Addressing the gap in multidisciplinary cooperation to enhance the protection of victims’ rights (CEPOV) was implemented between September 2024 – June 2026 with the financial support of the European Commission – Justice Programme; the project being coordinated by Association Pro Refugiu (Romania) in partnership with the University of Bucharest – Faculty of Law (Romania), Italian Coalition for Civil Liberties and Rights, University Roma Tre (Italy), Solwodi e.V. (Germany), Scandinavian Human Rights Lawyers (Sweden).
An online social media campaign was among the project’s activities. Social media can play a central role among the tools that can be used to raise awareness and engage different target groups on topical subjects related to the situation of victims of crime.
