EUROPEAN COUNTRIES
05.03.2008
The
Mediterranean Institute of Gender Studies (MIGS) is coordinating a
transnational project entitled “Date
Rape Cases Among Young Women and the Development of Good Practices for Support
and Prevention”, funded by the European Commission, Daphne II
Programme. Partners to the project are the University of Malta (Malta),
the Institute for Equality (Greece), the Coalition for Gender Equality in
Latvia (Latvia), and the Women’s Issues Information Center (Lithuania).
The
project aims to investigate the incidence of date rape among young women in
tertiary education (18-24) in five European countries including Cyprus, Greece,
Latvia, Malta and Lithuania, and to explore their attitudes, dating experiences
and level of awareness.
The project
is now in its second phase and five country reports have been finalized based
on the collection of comprehensive data, information and material through
quantitative and qualitative research carried out in each partner country. The
research aimed at measuring the prevalence and incidence of date rape among
female college students and assessing the attitudes, behaviours and level of
awareness among beneficiaries and target groups.
