Femicide is the lethal killing of
women and girls because of their gender. Until now, femicide has been included
in the category ‘homicide’, but many women are murdered because they are women.
In an attempt to combat the
phenomenon, the COST (Cooperation on Science and Technology) attached to the
European Union funded a four-year project on “Femicide across Europe.†This
book brings together the findings of this project in which 80 representatives
from 30 countries in Europe joined together to combat femicide and chart the
significant progress which has been made.
