Intersections between Violence against Children and Violence against Women - Global Research Priorities

By UNICEF, WHO and Sexual Vilance Research Initiative

Join UNICEF, WHO, and the SVRI, for the launch of the publication “Intersections between violence against children and violence against women: Global research priorities”. There is a growing global recognition that violence against women and violence against children, intersect in different ways. Establishing research priorities that focus on the intersections that exist between these two forms of violence is important to help advance our understanding of how to address these intersections in a more structured way and help measure progress to fill evidence gaps. Produced jointly by UNICEF, the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Human Reproduction Programme (HRP) and the Sexual Violence Research Initiative (SVRI), this report describes the process adopted to determine the priorities for research on the intersections between violence against children and violence against women, and covers the top 10 research questions identified. During this webinar we will be discussing the report briefs and exploring insights from partners who work at the intersection of these two forms of violence.
