In-Depth Study On All Forms of Violence Against Women

The UN-report provides a statistical overview of all forms of violence against women and presents the broad context of violence against women. It summarises the development of international awareness and action on male violence against women. The report provides the historical and socio-cultural context and analyses the structural and systematic causes of violence against women, like the role of patriarchy or denial of women's human rights. Further topics are: the current progress and challenges in the collection of data and statistics on violence against women, the obligation of the state in preventing and eliminating all forms of male violence against women and promising practices in the law, service provision and prevention. The report concludes with recommendations for action.
