The network Nordic Women Against Violence (NKMV) has arranged a number of yearly conferences aimed to strengthen the cooperation between Nordic women’s centres and organisations combating violence against women and children in the Nordic countries. In 2014, the conference was funded by the Nordic Gender Equality Fund and hosted by the Danish National Organisation of Women’s Shelters (LOKK). It consisted of various workshops and other events, with an overarching aim of facilitating effective sharing of experience and knowledge.

The conference was held in October 2014 and helped increase networking among practitioners in the Nordic countries. It also yielded knowledge about new methods and opportunities for sharing of experiences in the work against violence.
