Foreword Domestic violence against women remains widespread in Cambodia. According to the 2005 Demographic and Health Survey, 22 percent of married women between 15 and 49 have experienced physical violence, most commonly by their husbands 1 . The Cambodian Government has made some progress in recent years in establishing a legal framework to address gender-based abuses. In October 1992, the Cambodian Government ratified the Convention for Elimination of all forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW). In 2005, a Law on Domestic Violence against Women was adopted. However, law enforcement remains weak and is compounded by a corrupted legal system. The subject of domestic violence is not openly discussed in public and abuses are rarely reported in Cambodia. The reasons behind this are complicated and often intermingled. Lack of education and awareness of legal rights are a major cause. In fact, many respondents mentioned this as a contributing factor in the baseline survey undertaken at the beginning of the project 2 . More than 25 percent of women who have been subjected to sexual and physical domestic violence do not think they have been abused 3 . Fear of retaliation and financial costs – which most Cambodian women can’t afford – to bring a case to court or even obtain a medical certificate from a doctor to prove the abuse also discourages many Cambodian women from taking legal action. Above all, cultural elements as well as widely accepted norms of conduct for women seem to be the biggest and the most disturbing factors in the persistence of domestic violence. Traditional beliefs about the subservient role and status of women and social stigmatisation of those women who take legal action against their husbands contribute to a culture of impunity that allows perpetrators to believe they have the ‘right’ to abuse. Some women do not wish to report abuses or to involve authorities due to shame and social stigma. Furthermore, there is enormous social pressure on women, both from legal authorities and from the community itself, to remain with abusive husbands, which may even legitimise the violent behaviour. Even in serious cases of exploitation and abuse, women often seem to obey traditional values and forms of community arbitration and accept monetary compensation rather than legal justice. 1 National Institute of Public Health and National Institute of Statistics (2006), Cambodia Demographic and Health Survey 2005, Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
