CAGED : The Other Side of Love
https://www.facebook.com/events/418537341651200/?fref=ts
Did you know that about two in five of all victims of domestic violence are men? Did you know that one out of four same-sex relationships has experienced domestic violence? Did you know that physical violence is only one type of domestic violence?
BetaPsi, supported by KSU, will be holding 'CAGED : The Other Side of Love', a Domestic Violence Campaign, between the 9th and the 11th of February, at the University of Malta. The aim of this campaign is to raise awareness on the different types of domestic and dating violence, how to spot them, and how to get out of them.
Several activities, including a Panel at the KSU Common Room, will be featuring this campaign. We invite all students to visit our stand and attend our panel to learn more about what constitutes Domestic Violence!
