The Forum for professionals fighting against Family Honor Crimes in the Arab society within the Israeli state was founded in 2011, by a group of clinical psychologists and social workers specialized in treatment of battered women. Its main purpose is to explain and to interpret the “Family honor” phenomena from a professional point of view.
The Forum is seeking to:
1. Provide a space to professionals for sharing their experiences, dilemmas, fears and difficulties which resulted from the intensive treatment of battered women.
2. Establish a process of mutual support and solidarity among professional, due to their feelings of helplessness and frustration, mainly, because of the fact that they are not able stop or do some action to prevent murder of women.
