Preventable public health problem that affects due to the Intimate Partner Violence

Jonason Eriksson

Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) is a significant public health concern with far-reaching consequences for individuals, families, and communities. This abstract highlights the preventable nature of IPV and its implications for public health. IPV refers to any form of violence or abuse—physical, sexual, emotional, or economic-occurring within an intimate relationship. IPV affects individuals of all genders, socioeconomic backgrounds, and cultural groups. Its prevalence is alarming, with millions of individuals worldwide experiencing IPV each year. The consequences of IPV extend beyond immediate physical harm, leading to long-term physical, psychological, and social effects on survivors.Furthermore, children exposed to IPV may suffer from developmental delays, behavioral problems, and increased vulnerability to violence in their own relationships later in life. By understanding the preventable nature of IPV and implementing evidence-based interventions, we can strive to create a society free from intimate partner violence.Public health initiatives must continue to prioritize prevention efforts, raise awareness, and provide comprehensive support to survivors, aiming for a future where individuals can thrive in violence-free relationships and communities.
