Pernambuco State Secretariat for Women launches support initiative in Recife

The Pernambuco State Secretariat for Women is conducting the ‘Safe Environment for Women’ project at the Otávio de Freitas Hospital in Recife. The initiative utilizes a mobile service unit to provide free multidisciplinary support, including legal, social, and psychological assistance.

As part of the program, health policy advisor Margot Pedrosa will deliver a lecture regarding sexual harassment and importunity, focusing on prevention and confrontation strategies within workplaces and healthcare settings. The project has previously visited the Restauração and Agamenon Magalhães hospitals and is scheduled to expand to the Areias Hospital later this month.
