7-13/2/2016- Seminar "stop violence: women and disability" (Oviedo (Asturias), Spain)

The idea of our seminar is to analyze this three big issues: violence, gender and disabilities: establish common definitions, analyze legislation and current situation in the participant countries, also working in posible future projects that will improve the situations of double discrimination (gender and disability)

The seminar wants to gather together youth workers from two different types of organizations: on one hand, the ones that are actually working with people with disabilities and want to share their knowledge/experiences, on the other hand, organizations that are not working with people with disabilities but are willing to open their activities to this collective.
These are our main goals and objectives:
- Increase awareness on participants on the subject of disability, especially focusing on those cases that are usually not as present as can be double discrimination on gender violence and disability.
- Present outstanding examples of experiences and projects being carried out in these areas and assess the feasibility of adapting the tools to participants´realities.
- Create a list of visual, digital and intellectual resources on the issues of the seminar that organizations can use in the future.
- Develop projects within the framework of Erasmus so the participants can keep the contact in the future.

Apart from the theoretical part that the training team will carry out, we will work on the participants´experience. Participants should provide information about law and statistics in their countries, and we will have different panels of experiences.

Through non formal education, we will create a learning environment where participants can share and learn from new and different experiences.
