Three Words.

AXA added three words, 'and domestic violence', to the emergency-relocation clause of its home insurance, so victims can be rehoused right away.

The challenge

The home is often the most dangerous place for victims of domestic violence: AXA France says 79% of femicides happen at home (French Interior Ministry, 2023), and that the lack of emergency housing keeps many from leaving. French home insurance already paid for emergency relocation when fire or flood made a home unliveable, but not after domestic violence.

The idea

From 1 April 2025 every AXA France home contract includes two new guarantees: legal, psychological and financial support from Juridica, AXA's legal-protection subsidiary, and seven days of emergency rehousing for the victim and any children, arranged around the clock by AXA Partners (AXA France). AXA France and Publicis Conseil made the change known with a national campaign on TV, outdoor, digital and social, alongside training for AXA's agent network.

Results

  • 121 people supported in the first month and 1,292 in the first ten months, according to Publicis Conseil's Clio entry
  • Website traffic up 321% in the first month and new contracts up 9%, according to the same entry
  • The clause covers all 2.5 million AXA home insurance contracts, according to the agency's award entries
