  • Abstract:
  • Domestic violence and sexual violence represent pervasive and devastating issues affecting women and children worldwide. These forms of abuse inflict profound physical, emotional, and psychological harm, leaving lasting scars on individuals and communities. Despite increasing awareness and efforts to combat them, they persist as significant public health and human rights concerns, demanding urgent attention and action. Domestic violence, often referred to as intimate partner violence (IPV), encompasses a range of abusive behaviours perpetrated by a current or former intimate partner. These behaviours may include physical violence, sexual abuse, emotional manipulation, financial control, and coercive control. Tragically, women are disproportionately affected by domestic violence, with statistics indicating that one in three women globally will experience intimate partner violence in their lifetime. Similarly distressing is the prevalence of sexual violence against women and children. Sexual violence encompasses a broad spectrum of abusive actions, including rape, sexual assault, molestation, and exploitation. It occurs within various contexts, including intimate relationships, familial settings, and community environments. Regrettably, women and children are particularly vulnerable to sexual violence, with studies suggesting that one in five women and one in four girls experience sexual abuse during their lifetime. This research paper delves into various theoretical perspectives surrounding violence against women, shedding light on its multifaceted nature. It critically examines the impacts of both domestic and sexual violence on women and children, emphasizing the enduring psychological, emotional, and physical ramifications. Additionally, the paper analyses existing laws and legal frameworks pertaining to domestic violence and sexual abuse, assessing their efficacy in addressing and preventing such acts of violence. Through a comprehensive review of literature, this study aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of the complexities surrounding violence against women, while also informing policy and practice for the protection and support of survivors.
