After the latest news events relating to the femicide of Nicoleta Rotaru, D.i.Re – Women on the Net Against Violence sent the president of the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry into Feminicide Martina Semenzato the request to make the urgent requests, sent by GREVIO to the Italian State already in 2020, operational.

GREVIO urged “the Italian authorities to consider introducing a system, such as a critical homicide review mechanism, to analyze all cases of gender-based homicide of women - feminicide, in order to prevent them in the future, while protecting safety of women and forcing both the perpetrators of the violence and the various organizations that came into contact with the parties to respond.". 

"It is essential to understand the weaknesses of the system and understand how it can happen that - despite multiple contacts with the FFOO and the judicial authorities - it has not been possible to recognize a high-risk situation and activate the protection system, also provided for by the Convention of Istanbul" declares Antonella Veltri, president D.i.Re - Women on the Net against violence. "It is equally important to identify responsibilities, to arrive at the systemic correction of errors in the shortest possible time” continues President Veltri

Still too often, the a posteriori analysis that the experts from the anti-violence centers D.i.Re implement highlights gaps and errors that could be avoided with the right training on male violence against women and the consequent attention to risk assessment. 

"We intend to suggest a proposal suited to the severity of the phenomenon and which implements the recommendations that GREVIO has been urging us for some time. Make the experience of Anti-Violence Centers available D.i.Re it's our contribution" concludes Veltri
