Francesca holds a Bachelor’s degree in Law from the University of Neuchâtel. A trained legal professional, she has in-depth expertise in criminal judicial matters and solid experience in managing complex cases. Her professional background has led her to take on roles involving administrative coordination, regulatory oversight, and the management of inter-institutional relations.

Strongly committed to public service, she has notably worked as a police officer and as head of a chancery office, developing a detailed understanding of institutional functioning and the issues related to the protection of individuals.

Driven by a strong interest in the field of victim support, she obtained in 2025 a Certificate of Advanced Studies (CAS) in Victim Assistance (LAVI), a continuing education program focused on the legal and psychosocial support of victims. That same year, she also trained in motivational interviewing. This approach, centered on strengthening individuals’ ability to take action, is based on working with the sense of importance and confidence needed for change. The contributions of this method are part of the practice and support offered within VIOLENCE QUE FAIRE.

Anne-Sophie holds a Bachelor’s and a Master’s degree in Educational Sciences from the University of Lyon II. For several years, she has worked in a variety of fields as an assistant in international organizations, associations, and other institutions. She joined aduna romandie in November 2024, a non-profit institution serving associations and NGOs, and has taken on the new VIOLENCE QUE FAIRE mandate for the secretariat. She is very enthusiastic about working in a field dedicated to supporting people who are victims of intimate partner violence. It is a new experience that she embraces with great pleasure.

She has held a wide variety of exciting positions in the press, in communications agencies and in the luxury hotel industry.

Involving herself in a non-profit organisation such as VIOLENCE QUE FAIRE is a great challenge that she is delighted to take up with passion and creativity.

Livilla holds a Bachelor's degree in social work and a Master's degree in social sciences from the University of Fribourg. Throughout her career as a social worker, Livilla has worked in the field of victim support, including a position in the emergency shelter of the Solidarité Femmes LAVI centre in the canton of Fribourg. She has also, on several occasions, hosted the exhibition "Plus fort que la violence" (Stronger than the abuse), produced by the Fribourg Gender and Family Office (BEF). The subject of abuse and providing help for victims of crime are causes that are particularly close to her heart. Sensitive to gender issues and the challenges they entail, Livilla has explored these subjects in depth through a number of research projects carried out during her university studies, particularly as part of her Master's thesis. Livilla began working for VIOLENCE QUE FAIRE on 1 January 2024.
