A digital application for cellphones to support women facing violence at home, called 'Panic Button', was introduced in Athens and Thessaloniki on March 23.

The establishment of a pilot program for the use of the digital application "Panic button" , which is installed on smart phones and alerts the Police in cases of domestic violence, is provided for by an amendment submitted to the bill of the Ministry of Justice that incorporates a European directive on exchange of information about third country nationals.
