2Gether4Victims Podcast- Ep. 9: Enhancing Support with Individual Support Self-Assessment (INA)

In this episode, the podcast explores the Tool Development phase of the 2gether4victims project, focusing on the Individual Needs Assessment (INA) tool, designed to help support providers respond to the needs of victims in a gender-sensitive, trauma-informed, and individualized way. Recorded in Lisbon, Portugal, host Anna joins a study visit with 2gether4victims partners, giving listeners a first-hand sense of the collaboration and exchange of expertise happening across Europe. The discussion delves into how the INA tool was developed by Women’s Room, a specialized organization from Croatia, in close collaboration with partners across Europe. The tool helps support providers identify and respond to the specific needs of victims of gender-based and domestic violence, taking into account safety, psychological and physical well-being, practical needs, and long-term recovery. Listeners learn how the tool addresses common misconceptions about GBV/DV, challenges stereotyping, and ensures that support is tailored to the unique circumstances of women, men, and non-binary individuals. Throughout the episode, the importance of a gender-sensitive and intersectional approach is emphasized, illustrating how understanding the role of gender, societal norms, and systemic inequalities improves the quality of support. Practical guidance is provided on how the INA tool can be applied in both specialized and non-specialized services, complementing existing national legislation while ensuring equitable access to services for all victims. This episode offers actionable insights for practitioners, policymakers, and researchers, highlighting how structured, collaborative, and evidence-based tools like the INA can make victim support more responsive, inclusive, and effective. Listeners gain an in-depth view of the practical application, benefits, and ongoing refinement of the INA tool, while experiencing the dynamic environment of European partners learning and innovating together to enhance support for survivors of gender-based and domestic violence.
