On 4 October, the Marangopoulos Foundation organised an emotionally-charged event in memoriam of Sophia Koukoulis-Spiliotopoulos on the topic “Women at the forefront: achievements and the day after”.

Having as a starting point her important work in the field of women’s rights, current and new aspects of the issue of gender-based violence were brought out, such as women’s participation in political life, gender-based violence in the contemporary ageing society, (co-)guardianship, evaluating and assessing the risk for victims of gender-based violence, and the introduction of the notion of consent in the crime of rape.

We warmly thank all esteemed discussants for their contribution to our event, as well as all attendees who honored us with their presence.
