Since its establishment in 1994, the NANE Association has operated as a politically independent, non-profit, public benefit organization. Guided by a human rights approach, NANE has consistently championed women's rights as human rights. The Association recognizes violence against women as a pervasive, structural, and global phenomenon that transcends social, economic, and national boundaries. It views such violence as a consequence of power imbalances between women and men and an extreme form of gender-based discrimination. Eliminating this violence is fundamental to achieving social equality between women and men. These principles underpin NANE's operations and shape the organization's goals and tasks. NANE's professional activities span individual, community, and societal levels. NANE's primary objective is to improve the conditions of victims of violence against women and to build a world free from such violence. Although the state is responsible for providing effective and professional care and prevention for those affected, it often falls short. NANE steps in to offer emotional, mental, and informational support directly to victims. The Association employs a professionally grounded, feminist, trauma-focused approach that prioritizes the rights and needs of victims. Additionally, NANE enhances the victim assistance, protection, and prevention efforts of Hungarian social and educational systems, legislation, and law enforcement. By aggregating the experiences of those affected and advocating for their interests, NANE fosters gender equality and works to prevent violence against women through education and knowledge dissemination.
