Cometa

Cometa is a system in Spain designed to protect victims of gender-based violence. Recent news highlights concerns regarding its coordination with other protection systems, specifically Atenpro and the police. The Defensor del Pueblo (Ombudsman), Ángel Gabilondo, in his 2025 annual report, has alerted that these systems do not coordinate adequately. This lack of coordination is a significant issue, potentially undermining the effectiveness of violence prevention and victim protection efforts. The report, presented to the Congress, underscores the need for improved integration and communication between Cometa, Atenpro, and law enforcement to ensure comprehensive support for victims. This issue is relevant as it directly impacts the safety and well-being of individuals at risk of gender-based violence.
