This project, which ran from 2011 to 2013 focused on improving access to information for victims in Portugal, Sweden, Czech Republic and Austria.
The project resulted in three outputs:

• A website – com – which informs victims of crime about their rights in each country, addressing the functioning of the criminal justice system in a simple and accessible language.

• A poster – “Rights of Victims of Crime” – which offers a simple and attractive way to raise the awareness and inform about the rights of victims of crime.

• A brochure – “Infovictims: know your rights as a victim of crime” condenses and complements the information available on the website and can be found in the three partner countries’ versions:Austria; Czech Republicand Portugal.

The project was implemented by the Portuguese Association of Victim Support in partnership with:

• Victim Support Europe (VSE)
• Rottsoffermyndigheten (Sweden)
• Weisser Ring Austria (Austria)
• Bíli Kru Bezpeci (Czech Republic)

The project was co-financed by the European Commission under the Directorate General Justice
