Abstract

Today is International Day for Elimination of Violence Against Women. Violence against women is one of the most widespread human rights violations of today and a global health crisis. According to UN Women, one in three women have experienced physical and/or sexual violence in their lifetime. However, other less obvious forms of domestic, sexual and gender-based violence include online harassment and emotional, psychological, verbal and economic abuse.
