National support function for honour-based violence and oppression
In 2024, NCK is working on behalf of the National Centre against Honour-based Violence and Oppression (NCH) to establish a special national function where individuals who are exposed or at risk of being exposed to honour-based violence and oppression and their relatives can turn to for advice and guidance at a general level. The support function is regulated in the Ordinance on the National Centre against Honour-based violence and Oppression (SFS 2022:1345). NCK will start a new support line in 2024 and run it as a pilot operation.
