On the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women - November 25, the international campaign "16 Days of Elimination of Violence Against Women" has started. The Regional Conference "Femicide Watch - for the prevention of femicide in the Republic of Croatia" was organized in Zagreb by Gender Equality Ombudsperson. The representative of GTF-ISG Ljiljana Barišić participated in the conference along with numerous guests from different institutions from the region. The conference addressed the gender dimension of violence and violence as a global problem, its causes and consequences. An initiative launching an observation body or system at the national level called "Femicide Watch" was presented. The initiative tracks the incidence of murders of women from gender perspective and analyzes data to detect key failures that lead to the murder of women by their husbands or former and current partners. The first panel of the conference was devoted to the situation in the region, the legal framework and statistical data related to the murder of women and domestic violence. The topic was opened by the Ombudsperson for Gender Equality Višnja Ljubičić who gave a brief section of the experiences of the institution she represents. Guests from the region spoke on the situation in other countries in the region related to femicide and gender-based violence against women. The second panel examined the current situation and defined mechanisms to prevent domestic violence and partner relationships that lead to the murder of women. The statistic data and the campaign to raise awareness about the legal framework and method of prosecuting perpetrators and victims' protection mechanisms were also brought. In the end, the Conference adopted the conclusions which should contribute to the prevention of femicide in the Republic of Croatia. /// Povodom Međunarodnog dana borbe protiv nasilja nad ženama - 25. studenog, kojim počinje međunarodna kampanja 16 dana aktivizma protiv nasilja nad ženama, Pravobraniteljica za ravnopravnost spolova organizirala je u Zagrebu Regionalnu konferenciju „Femicid Watch – za prevenciju femicida u Republici Hrvatskoj“. Predstavnica GTF-IOR-a Ljiljana Barišić sudjelovala je na konferenciji uz brojne uzvanike iz različitih institucija iz regije. Na konferenciji se govorilo o rodnom aspektu nasilja i nasilju kao globalnom problemu, njegovim uzrocima i posljedicama. Predstavljena je inicijativa pokretanja promatračkog tijela ili sustava na nacionalnim razinama nazvanog „Femicid Watch“ koji bi pratili pojavnost ubojstava žena iz rodnog aspekta te analizirali podatke radi uočavanja ključnih propusta koji dovode do ubojstava žena od strane njihovih supruga ili bivših i sadašnjih partnera. Prvi panel konferencije bio je posvećen stanju u regiji, zakonodavnom okviru kao i statističkim podacima vezanim za ubojstva žena i nasilje u obitelji. Tu je temu otvorila pravobraniteljica za ravnopravnost spolova Višnja Ljubičić koja je dala kratak presjek iskustava institucije koju predstavlja. O stanju u drugim zemljama regije vezano za femicid i rodno uvjetovano nasilje nad ženama govorile su gošće iz regije. Na drugom panelu pokušalo se sagledati sadašnje stanje i definirati mehanizmi prevencije nasilja u obitelji i partnerskim vezama koja dovode do ubojstava žena. Iznjeli su se statističi podaci te o kampanji osvještavanja, o zakonodavnom okviru i načinu procesuiranja počinitelja te mehanizmima zaštite žrtava itd. Na kraju Konferencije doneseni su zaključci koji bi trebali doprinjeti prevenciji femicida u Republici Hrvatskoj.
