Project reports published

The research team is pleased to announce that the work on the Project Reports has been completed, marking also the completion of WP3 of the project. The Reports incorporate an element of desk research into the project and focus on the problem of domestic violence in the specific context of child abduction. The research was carried out by the research partners in their respective Member States and was supplemented by information gathered through the local workshops that took place in WP2. The Project Reports will serve as a basis for the Best Practice Guide which will be developed in WP4. The Project Reports can be accessed here.
