Between 2020 and 2021, the number of calls made in Italy to 1522, a gender violence and stalking helpline peaked in the second quarter of 2020. Between April and June 2020, it reached the impressive number of 12.9 thousand calls. The source reports that this surge was probably due to the lockdown imposed by the government to contain the spread of COVID-19 in the Spring of 2021, which forced many victims to spend more time at home with their abusers. During the first months of 2021, the largest number of calls came from Lazio, Lombardy, and Campania.
1522 is a phone number set up by the Italian Ministry for Equal Opportunities to help and support gender violence and stalking victims. It is free, anonymous and works 24/7.
