Primary prevention of violence against women with disability: Evidence synthesis

Abstract

The intersection of gender and disability means that the nature and dynamics of violence against women with disability is different than women without disability. Currently we know much less about what works to prevent violence against women in this context. This review aims to address that gap in evidence. It analyses population level data on the nature and extent of violence against women with disability, reviews the effectiveness of prevention interventions, and summarises learning from existing primary prevention programming and practice.
