The Holy Archdiocese of Athens and the Greek Ministry of Social Cohesion and Family signed a memorandum of cooperation to prevent domestic violence. This partnership, involving the Archdiocese’s Youth and Family Foundation, aims to implement awareness campaigns, educational programs, and staff training on gender issues across various parishes.

The initiative focuses on fostering a culture of zero tolerance toward violence against women, empowering survivors, and improving access to assistance. Following this institutional agreement, local awareness events have been organized, such as a scheduled discussion in Agrinio at the Parish of Agios Dimitrios. This event, co-organized by religious, judicial, and police entities, aims to sensitize the community through presentations on the judicial and police perspectives regarding domestic violence against women and minors.
