|About STOPVAW |
| |
|The Stop Violence Against Women website (STOPVAW) is a forum for information, advocacy and change. The Advocates for Human |
|Rights developed this website as a tool for the promotion of women's human rights in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe |
|(CEE) and the former Soviet Union (FSU), Mongolia, and the U.N. Protectorate of Kosovo. STOPVAW was developed with support from |
|and in consultation with the United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) and the Open Society Institute's Network Women's |
|Program. This site addresses violence against women as one of the most pervasive human rights abuses worldwide. STOPVAW provides |
|women's rights advocates with information and advocacy tools focused on ending the most endemic forms of violence against women in |
|the region, including domestic violence, sexual assault, sexual harassment and trafficking in persons. |
| |
|Current staff members of The Advocates for Human Rights involved with the development of STOPVAW include, Mary Ellingen, Mary |
|Ellison, Beatriz Menanteau, Rosalyn Park, Robin Phillips, and Cheryl Thomas. Current interns and volunteers include Emily Buehler, |
