After the Women's Shelter Coordination Office had to cancel the 2020 FHK Expert Forum, entitled "Is it possible without (limits)? Resources and Limits of the Support System and Actors," due to the coronavirus pandemic, the event took place digitally on September 03 and 04, 2020. We look back on two intensive and fulfilling days with enriching presentations, entirely new dynamics, and outstanding participation.
The online event also offered plenty of interactive content and exchange: In addition to extremely impressive presentations on current topics such as coercive control, child welfare and contact, and women with mental health impairments who have been affected by violence, guests had the opportunity to actively participate in two panel discussions and several workshops.
Journalist Beate Hinrichs hosted the event, and the media agency Fulmidas was responsible for the technical implementation.
We would like to thank all participants, speakers and helping hands once again – without you this would not have been possible.
The planned live graphic recording of the event by artist Chrispy Simon had to be cancelled due to illness, but will be rescheduled as part of the follow-up to the expert forum.
The documentation of the event is expected to be made available on the FHK website in November 2020.
