Coalition of Feminist Groups Demands Comprehensive Law Against Sexual Violence

A coalition of fifty organizations calls for a sweeping legal reform to address the systemic issue of sexual violence in France.

The coalition, including prominent groups like the Planning Familial and Osez le Féminisme, has proposed 130 measures to combat sexual violence.
Key proposals include fighting online rape culture and ensuring minors cannot access pornographic content.
The coalition highlights that 94% of rape cases were dismissed in 2021, despite a 164% increase in complaints from 2018 to 2022.
An investment of 2.6 billion euros per year is deemed necessary to effectively tackle sexual, physical, and domestic violence.
Nationwide rallies are planned to support victims and demand legislative action, with gatherings in major cities like Paris, Lyon, and Marseille.
