Around the world at least one woman in every three has been beaten, coerced into sex, or otherwise abused in her lifetime. Increasingly, violence against women is recognized as a major public health concern and a violation of human rights. The effects of violence can be devastating to a woman's reproductive health as well as to other aspects of her physical and mental well-being, as violent intimate partner relationships make women vulnerable to HIV and other sexually transmitted infections.
Our resources include reports and articles on violence against women and its impact on women’s health and rights.
