"I voted in favour of the resolution on the ‘Daphne programme: achievements and future prospects’ because I am pleased with the significant results achieved thus far by the programme, even though I maintain that there is still much work to be done in the field of combating violence against women. I think it should not be possible for us to read studies that estimate that a fifth of the female population have been physically assaulted at least once in their adult life and that more than one tenth have suffered sexual violence. Furthermore, 26% of children and young people report physical violence in childhood. Daphne has certainly had a positive outcome: the Commission has funded 500 projects since 1997, which have managed to keep up with the times and with technological developments, for example, by funding initiatives against cyberbullying, while also focusing on lamentably long-term issues such as female genital mutilation and the prevention of sexual grooming. Accordingly, I hope that the new justice and rights and citizenship programmes that will encompass the Daphne programme will take account of the results obtained thus far and the sense of waging war on violence that this mythological name still evokes to this day."@en1
