Description:
Women face the greatest danger from people they know. In the EU, more than a fifth of women have been physically or sexually abused by a current or former partner. This report provides new evidence on factors which encourage witnesses of intimate partner violence to intervene and provides recommendations on what the EU and Member States can do to better protect victims.
