According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 30% of women worldwide have experienced sexual and/or physical intimate partner violence (IPV) or non-partner sexual violence in their lifetimes. IPV accounts for most of this violence. Almost 27% of women who have been in a relationship between the ages of 15 and 49 say that their partners have used sexual or physical violence against them. Women's physical, mental, sexual, and reproductive health may suffer as a result of violence. "any act of gender-based violence (GBV) that results in, or is likely to result in, physical, sexual, or mental harm or suffering to women, including threats of such acts, coercion, or arbitrary deprivation of liberty, whether occurring in public or private life," the United Nations defined violence against women in 1993. Women's rights are being violated and violence against women is a serious problem for public health.
