Become Part of the VIPROM Changemaker Community

The VIPROM Changemaker Community brings together healthcare professionals, organisations, and stakeholders committed to preventing and responding to domestic violence within healthcare settings. Grounded in evidence-based practices and the insights from VIPROM’s handbooks and training resources, the community supports a survivor-centred, trauma-informed approach across Europe. Together, we share knowledge, build capacity, and promote sustainable change in healthcare systems, ensuring that professionals are better equipped to recognise domestic violence and support those affected with care, dignity, and competence.

On 28 October 2025, we held an online VIPROM Changemaker Event bringing together experts and practitioners from across Europe. The session focused on sharing insights, best practices, and ideas for reducing violence and promoting positive change.
