Problem:
Almost every day in Germany, a woman dies at the hands of her (ex-)partner. Femicides are the pinnacle of gender-specific violence against women. Most cases are preceded by many years of domestic violence. In Germany, the Protection against Violence Act has been in force since 2022 for precisely this reason, although it is only enforced by the police in less than 10% of cases.
Idea:
A law that is not applied is useless in the reality of the lives of those affected. So we use the law on the protection of powers to help those affected as a tool in everyday life: Not only in theory, but above all in reality.
Solution:
"The law as a weapon" is a Trojan horse in the fight against violence against women. Disguised as a novel with an inconspicuous dust jacket, it contains the law in plain language, a microphone to preserve evidence and a metal cover so that it also works as a physical defence.
