Global Status Report on Violence Prevention 2014

By World Health Organization

This report focuses on interpersonal violence, which includes child maltreatment, youth violence, intimate partner violence, sexual violence, and elder maltreatment. Much like similar reports on road safety, tobacco control, and mental health, this snapshot of the state of interpersonal violence prevention in each country will serve as benchmark for countries to assess their violence prevention efforts; as a baseline to track future progress in violence prevention internationally; to identify gaps in national responses to violence that need to be addressed; and to catalyze further prevention action. Its ultimate aim is to strengthen Member States' capacity to prevent violence.
