Facilitating the reintegration of abused and disabled women into Spanish society

In Spain, our teams collaborated with the NGOs Fundación ONCE and Inserta in 2022[1] to foster job creation by promoting the reintegration of abused and disabled women into society. Forvis Mazars in Spain was selected by both NGOs to lead this project, now known as ‘Café Violeta’.

The purpose of this initiative is to empower women with disabilities who have been victims of gender-based violence and harassment through employment and entrepreneurship. Five partners based in Spain have engaged in monthly one-on-one mentoring sessions, as well as employment and business creation and management workshops to help these women throughout their recovery process. This individualised support has helped them to acquire new skills and regain confidence in themselves to re-enter the labour market and become financially independent.
