| dc.description.notes | In this commentary article Astbury looks at WHO’s approach to gender-based violence in its first World Report on Violence and Health. The report’s three chapters which examine violence against women and children in detail are seen as a welcome but long overdue recognition of the need to study violence against women as a public health and criminal justice issue. It is noted that, while the prevalence rates of intimate partner violence may vary considerably between countries, the nature of the triggers which precipitate violence are quite similar. Deficiencies in quality and availability of data worldwide are discussed. Astbury suggests that the report presents a number of challenges to public health including why recognition of gender-based violence as a public health issue has taken so long to arrive as well as the need to develop a model to deal with gender-based violence which can encompass the complexity of the issue. As examples of public health programmes which need to respond to the element of gender-based violence, she cites the connection between the rates of smoking and violence, mental health and violence and reproductive health and violence. | en |
