The digital hub for a holistic violence-protection ecosystem.
Patrona connects all relevant actors in the protection against violence, bundles data securely and usefully, and creates value for every persona — from prevention through intervention to prosecution and policy steering.
Built to implement the Istanbul Convention.

Explore →The Istanbul Convention as strategic compass
The Istanbul Convention obliges states to prevention, protection, prosecution and coordinated policies against violence towards women. It demands funding for NGOs, coordinating bodies, systematic data collection and comprehensive victim protection.
Patrona translates these obligations into working digital infrastructure — so that governments, institutions and helpers can prove they fulfil their duties, and victims actually receive the protection the convention promises.
The cost of inaction
Gender-based violence is not only a human tragedy — it is a massive economic burden. Prevention pays off.

A digital ecosystem against violence
Patrona goes far beyond an emergency-call or documentation app. As a digital ecosystem it fulfils four functions:
Data hub & evidence base
Reliable data for politics, research and business — to fulfil legal obligations, steer resources efficiently and reduce the economic cost of violence.
Standardisation & efficiency
Standardised, evidence-proof documentation in healthcare, justice and insurance — lowering liability risks, speeding up proceedings and cutting costs.
Protection & empowerment
A safe place for victims: evidence securing, emergency call and connection — implementing the state's comprehensive duties of protection.
Coordination & prevention
Connecting NGOs, helpers, research and police — dismantling duplicate structures, improving prevention with data and keeping perpetrator work accountable.
