Female Petty Officers Don't Leave the Door to Fight Violence

In Yozgat, female non-commissioned officers installed the Kades application on the mobile phones of 2 women out of 572 women, whom they raised awareness about domestic violence by visiting village to village.

In Yozgat, two female non-commissioned officers are traveling from village to village to promote the Women's Support (KADES) mobile application, which enables victim women who are or may face violence to reach the security forces with one click.

Gendarmerie Petty Officers Gonca Türel and Saadet Öz, who are in charge of the Provincial Gendarmerie Command, inform women by leaving no door unturned in the villages within the scope of the Strong Family, Safe Future Project supported by the Yozgat Governorship.

Female non-commissioned officers provide information on the importance of family, domestic violence and family relations to their fellows in their homes.

The NCOs, who also met with women in factories, public education centers and Qur'an courses, installed the KADES application on the mobile phones of 2 of the 572 women they reached within the scope of the project that started in June last year.

Reaching 45 villages within the scope of the project, NCOs informed 1311 men about violence against women.
