Istanbul Convention

Protection from violence is not a privilege

Violence against women, girls and everyone affected by gender-based violence is not an isolated case – it is a structural problem. The Istanbul Convention is the strongest international instrument of protection, designed to keep those affected from being overlooked, unheard or left alone.

As KE!N EINZELFALL e.V., we expressly recognise the Istanbul Convention and see its principles as a central guide for our work. It strengthens the rights of those affected and creates obligations to protect, prevent, support and raise awareness – values that are deeply rooted in our work as an association.

By publicly supporting the Istanbul Convention, we make it clear: those affected deserve protection, respect, safety and reliable support structures. We are committed to making gaps in the support system visible and filling them wherever state services are still missing or inadequate.

Here you’ll find our stance on the Istanbul Convention and why it matters so much for our work, as well as the Istanbul Convention itself.

Would you like to tell us something, get involved or simply be part of KE!N EINZELFALL?

Maybe you have an idea for a working group, a self-help group or a project. Maybe you would like to contribute something to Space for the unsaid.

Or maybe you simply want to get involved with your knowledge or your experience, your creativity or the wish to change something.

You don't need a finished plan. Sometimes something simply starts with someone saying: I have an idea. I want to contribute something. I need support. Or: I just want to be part of it.

And if you have questions about social compensation law (OEG/SGB XIV), the severe-disability ID, the care level or other support systems, or would like a personal conversation, you are welcome to contact us.
