In a recent episode of the talk show "Hart aber fair," a panel of experts and politicians discussed the pressing issue of violence against women in Germany.
The discussion highlighted the alarming statistic that nearly every day, a woman or girl is killed in the country, with overall crimes against women on the rise.
The panel, which included figures like Ricarda Lang and Dorothee Bär, emphasized the need for stronger legal measures and societal change to combat this violence.
They pointed out the inadequacy of current penalties for crimes like rape and the shortage of spaces in women's shelters.
The conversation also touched on the pervasive issue of online harassment, which discourages women from participating in politics and public life.
The panelists called for a united effort to address these challenges, stressing that protecting women is essential to safeguarding freedom of expression and democracy.
