The aim of the event among others was to raise awareness, on countering and preventing VSH and catcalling in sports that usually ends up in athletes’ dropping out of sports and mostly in womens’ dropout, as well as empowering the athletes and educating all Volleyball coaches by introducing them to the European project "Whistle".
