The presentation of the national program "Improving the sense of security of women and the family" and examining its goals and axes in the presence of the first vice president.
Zahra Bharoz Azar, Vice President for Women and Family Affairs:
Today, at the second meeting of the National Headquarters for Women and the Family in the 14th government, chaired by Mr. Dr. Aref, the national plan "Improving the sense of security of women and the family" was presented and its goals and axes were reviewed, so that after the change and completion it will be brought to the Cabinet for approval.
This program was prepared with the aim of comprehensive and systematic prevention of injuries and violence against women, especially in the family environment, identifying emerging factors that threaten the security of women and families in cyberspace, and promoting women's sense of security in the public space, workplaces and cyberspace.
Although prevention laws are one of the requirements for preventing and dealing with violence, they are not sufficient by themselves. Therefore, at the same time as promoting the amendment of the laws, we emphasize strengthening preventive measures, timely identification of high-risk situations, effective intervention and development of support mechanisms.
The first amendment proposal was to put emphasis on strengthening women's security alongside improving the sense of security. On this basis, we will complete and present the content of the plan under the title "National plan to strengthen security and promote women's sense of security and prevent domestic violence."
