Notes:	This article deals with violence against women in an overview discussion. It first reflects on the devastating legacy of gender violence, with examples from across the world. It goes on to discuss the transformations that began to develop in both service provision and in attention to, and public attitudes about, the issue in various countries, from the 1970s onwards. There have been (a) transforming services, (b) transforming people and (c) transforming research. Illustrations are provided from the United Kingdom with additional material from Australia and New Zealand. The paper celebrates both the achievements of activism and service provisions over the past 30 years on gender violence, and also the first 20 years of specialized violence against women research, during which time it has moved from the margins to - almost - the mainstream.
