They’ve escaped their abuser. This international treaty will drag them back to him. Hague Mothers. A FiLiA Legacy Project. The 1980 Hague Convention was intended to deal with fathers who abduct their children across international borders without the mother’s permission. It has been weaponised. In over 75% of cases, abusive fathers now use it to compel children, and therefore mothers, to return to the country they have fled. The Hague Mothers campaign aims to end that terrifying injustice. Find out how – and how you can help. With lawyer & activist Sudha Shetty, of the Hague Domestic Violence Project (USA) academic & activist Gina Hope Masterton (Australia) Hague mother turned Hague academic Kim Fawcett (UK) and members of our international project team: lawyers, academics, domestic violence professionals, child psychologists, social workers, media specialists, feminists & activists, and Hague mothers themselves.
