"The idea behind the review is to publicize the activities of the Desk - created by a joint initiative of Normale, Sant'Anna and the University of Pisa, with the support of the Casa della Donna - and to promote the culture of gender equality, and the respect and appreciation of differences, in the total rejection of all forms of violence and harassment," explains Renata Pepicelli, Associate Professor at the University of Pisa who coordinates the Anti-Violence Desk; in 2023 the initiative was a great success, the hope is to replicate it for this edition as well".
