The Associazione Uomini e Donne Insieme ETS was set up thanks to the union of a number of entrepreneurs and freelancers united by a single vocation: to say "it's enough" to violence against women.

With this in mind, U.D.I. seeks to implement all possible initiatives to raise awareness and discourage acts of violence.

What the project involves

The Uomini e Donne Insieme ETS project aims to safeguard women who are experiencing violence and have already reported to the police, because they are the most at risk and exposed to serious incidents.

UDI Call is a mini-cell phone, measuring 4x4x1cm. Equipped with a sim, in addition to calling and receiving in the event of an emergency, the device has an SOS button that sends a text message directly to a previously stored mobile phone number. This makes it possible to determine the exact position of the device and intervene promptly.

Expected Outcomes

  • Combating gender-based violence
  • Prevention of violence
  • Promoting respect between women and men

The beneficiaries

The beneficiaries of the project will be all women and girls in Italy who are at risk of violence and who turn to UDI for support in freeing themselves from this dreadful situation.
