In-depth study on all forms of violence against women
Abstract
This document presents The Secretary-General’s in-depth study on violence against women mandated by General Assembly resolution 58/185. This study was prepared by the Division for the Advancement of Women of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations Secretariat. Specifically, the study aims to: highlight the persistence and unacceptability of all forms of violence against women in all parts of the world; strengthen the
political commitment and joint efforts of all stakeholders to prevent and eliminate violence against women; and identify ways and means to ensure more sustained and effective implementation of State obligations to address all forms of violence against women, and to increase State accountability.
