COVID-19 increases the risk for gender-based violence. 
Stress, the disruption of social and protective networks, loss of income and decreased access to services increase the risk of violence for women. 
We must all be aware of the increased risk of violence against women during this pandemic and the need to keep in touch and support women subjected to violence, and to have information about where help for survivors is available.

Ο COVID-19 αυξάνει τον κίνδυνο βίας λόγω φύλου.
Το άγχος, η διακοπή των κοινωνικών και προστατευτικών δικτύων, η απώλεια εισοδήματος και η μειωμένη πρόσβαση σε υπηρεσίες αυξάνουν τον κίνδυνο βίας για τις γυναίκες.
Πρέπει όλοι να γνωρίζουμε τον αυξημένο κίνδυνο βίας εναντίον των γυναικών κατά τη διάρκεια αυτής της πανδημίας και την ανάγκη να διατηρούμε επαφή και να στηρίζουμε τις γυναίκες που υφίστανται βία και να έχουμε πληροφορίες σχετικά με το πού είναι διαθέσιμη βοήθεια για τα θύματα.

COVID-19, cinsiyete dayalı şiddet riskini artırmaktadır.
Stres, sosyal ve koruyucu ağların sekteye uğraması, gelir kaybı ve hizmetlere olan erişimin azalması, kadınlar için şiddet riskini artırmaktadır. 
Bu salgın sırasında kadına yönelik şiddet riskinin arttığının farkında olmalı ve, şiddete maruz kalan kadınlarla iletişim halinde olarak onlara destek vermeli, ayrıca nereden yardım alabilecekleri konusunda bilgi sahibi olmalıyız.
