(Adnkronos) - “I comportamenti di violenza economica sono trasversali e possono riguardare tutte le donne, in quanto purtroppo nessuna donna è completamente sicura e al riparo. Un passaggio fondamentale per essere potenzialmente più libere è proprio la consapevolezza”. A dirlo è Azzurra Rinaldi, economista e direttrice della School of Gender economics dell’università Unitelma Sapienza, intervenuta al lancio della terza edizione della campagna di raccolta fondi “Insieme per le Donne”, promossa da Bper Banca in favore del Fondo Autonomia di D.i.Re - Donne in Rete contro la violenza.

00:00There are economic violence behaviors that are normalized in our culture.
00:08For example, when the partner works and the woman doesn't,
00:12and the woman is forced to beg every day to have money just to do the shopping.
00:17When, for example, there is a check at the counter,
00:21when a shared account is managed independently and the partner does not have access to it,
00:27when, in the moment of separation or divorce, food money is not given.
00:33These behaviors are actually transversal.
00:35They can concern all women.
00:37Unfortunately, no one is completely safe and secure.
00:42Certainly, a fundamental step to be potentially freer is awareness.
00:50What we do today is what we do with BIPER,
00:53also with financial literacy courses and with all the activities that BIPER carries out.
00:59Women's protection is what makes them say in every day and every night of their work.
01:04The data that tells us that complaints are increasing.
01:07If we want to read them with a positive lens,
01:10we can read them thinking that just from the moment that women are more aware, they complain more.
01:15There is a whole phenomenon of complaints that happen inside the house.
01:18Unfortunately, what we see with the complaints is just the tip of the iceberg.
01:23Young men are giving us a lot of hope.
01:26There is still a lack, this is the big cultural step that is still missing,
01:30of a collective awareness of gender.
01:33It is also a call to action for men who have never been violent,
01:38who would never be violent, but now we need to hear the words, the closeness and the support.
