The Observatory on Gender-based Violence in Bizkaia (OVGB) emerged as an initiative of the Social Action Department of Bizkaia Provincial Council (DFB) in 2003. It began to operate in 2004.
This Observatory has two main objectives:
- To understand the reality and evolution of the situations of violence against women in Bizkaia.
- To make recommendations and proposals to improve the services and facilities offered by public institutions in the field of gender-based violence.
Its work on compiling data on dealing with situations of gender violence within the social sphere, where there are multiple information sources, is of particular interest (123). Data gathering process coordinated by the Indicators Working Party.
Along with the information on a social level, the political and legal data make up a database providing a closer view on the care provided to this collective and the analysis of the evolution. This knowledge is used to issue recommendations as guidelines for public policies.
The work carried out can be found on the OVGB website: http://www.bizkaia.eus/Gizartekintza/Genero_Indarkeria/ca_index.html
El Observatorio de Violencia de Género en Bizkaia (OVGB) surge como iniciativa del Departamento de Acción Social de la Diputación Foral de Bizkaia (DFB) en el año 2003. En 2004 comienzan sus actuaciones.
Dos son los objetivos principales de este Observatorio:
- Conocer la realidad y la evolución de las situaciones de violencia contra las mujeres en Bizkaia.
- Formular recomendaciones y propuestas de mejora en los servicios y prestaciones que se ofertan desde las instituciones públicas, en el ámbito de la violencia de género.
De todo el trabajo desarrollado resulta de especial interés la compilación de los datos de las actuaciones efectuadas en atención a las víctimas de violencia de género dentro del ámbito social, en el que existen múltiples fuentes informativas (123), proceso de recogida de datos coordinado por el Grupo de Trabajo sobre indicadores de violencia de género.
A la información del plano social se suman las de los ámbitos policial y judicial configurando un repositorio de datos que permite acercarse a la realidad de la atención a este colectivo y al análisis de la evolución; conocimiento que facilita la emisión de recomendaciones que orienten las políticas públicas.
La labor efectuada está contenida en la página web del OVGB: http://www.bizkaia.eus/Gizartekintza/Genero_Indarkeria/ca_index.html
