Round Table

"Raising awareness and involving men in the fight against Sexist sexual violence in party venues".

The fight against gender-based and sexual violence (GBV) is a daily battle that requires the mobilisation of society as a whole. To succeed in this mission, it is crucial to raise awareness and involve men, who are indispensable players in this paradigm shift.

Under the expert moderation of Camille Loiseau, a freelance journalist with a passion for feminism and music, this meeting will bring together speakers from a variety of backgrounds, all committed to the fight against SGBV.

This round table is a forum for reflection and exchange between committed activists.
