Taking a four-part approach, it firstly focuses on the Victims’ Right Directive and the proposal for a Directive on combating violence against women. It then explores victims’ rights in the national laws of the Member States, including France, Germany, Hungary, the Netherlands, Romania, Lithuania and Ireland.
Finally it analyses the main challenges in the field and the need for coherence between the different competing interests.
Julia Burchett is Researcher at the European Law Center, Belgium. Anne Weyembergh is Professor at the Faculty of Law and Institute for European Studies, Belgium.
