| Abstract | This paper presents Empower Daphne which is a research-intervention project that focuses on the problem of gender-based violence, particularly within the family and the mother-daughter relationship. The goal of the project, which evolved from an earlier project (Testoni at al., 2009), is to investigate, intervene and change the condition of subordination of women that is linked to the justification of violence against women by men. Psychodramatic strategies are utilized in order to reach this aim. We will validate the theoretical model on an Italian non clinical sample. The aim is to set the assumptions for Italy, which will be tested later on the specific target of the Empower project; women victims of violence. |
