Partnership
"If I had received a training like Abuse is not Love when I was in school, I would have not fallen into the abusive relationship that I married into and made me suffer for 11 years. I would also have been able to go to university but I chose love, although I was too young to understand that it was not love but abuse. Abuse is not Love is key to change the lives of many young women and men to live a better future and form healthy relationships."
Co-creating a society free from violence against women
Ana Bella Foundation transforms survivors' suffering into expertise and empathy to detect thousands of invisible victims to speak up, break free from violence and release their full potential to become leaders of their own lives. By sharing positive testimonies of survivors as well as working with the media, governments, companies and educational centres, we are transforming how society views women and young girls who have experienced abuse

Accompanying the youth to break free from abusive intimate partner relationship
