Violence against women and
the role of gender equality,
social inclusion and health
strategies
Although the EU has made significant strides towards
achieving gender equality over recent decades, women
remain the principal victims of gender-based violence.
This report analyses the social aspects of such violence.
It aims to present a clear picture of the situation in
EU Member States and EEA/EFTA and candidate
countries regarding all types of violence directed at
women, be they physical, sexual or psychological.
The report begins by summarising the main features
of violence against women in Europe. It then gives an
overview of actions addressing this form of violence,
in terms of prevention, victim support and social
reintegration before presenting its final conclusions
and their related policy implications.
