Towards lifelong and lifewide education to prevent gender-based violence at school and in the family.

Violence against women has reached a level of diffusion and pervasiveness in all social classes and age groups that requires a plurality
of multidisciplinary interventions as well as a true “cultural revolution” to bring out and remove submerged but still existing
sexist and patriarchal aspects in our culture.
From an educational point of view, it is necessary to think, from very early childhood, about educating to respect and gender
equality, which implies rethinking the initial and in-service training of all those who work in educational institutions and schools.
At the same time, it is also necessary to work with families who, from birth, transmit different principles, values and styles of behaviour
based on sexual difference.
The contribution will attempt to highlight the urgency of a training-transformation starting with education professionals but
extended to all citizens and female citizens, because the processes of education and socialisation to gender take place in all contexts.
