520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc Context:<br/><br/>Evidence confirms associations between childhood violence and major causes of mortality in adulthood. A synthesis of data on past-year prevalence of violence against children will help advance the United Nations’ call to end all violence against children.<br/><br/>Objectives:<br/><br/>Investigators systematically reviewed population-based surveys on the prevalence of past-year violence against children and synthesized the best available evidence to generate minimum regional and global estimates.<br/><br/>Data sources:<br/><br/>We searched Medline, PubMed, Global Health, NBASE, CINAHL, and the World Wide Web for reports of representative surveys estimating prevalences of violence against children.<br/><br/>Study selection:<br/><br/>Two investigators independently assessed surveys against inclusion criteria and rated those included on indicators of quality.<br/><br/>Data extraction:<br/><br/>Investigators extracted data on past-year prevalences of violent victimization by country, age group, and type (physical, sexual, emotional, or multiple types). We used a triangulation approach which synthesized data to generate minimum regional prevalences, derived from population-weighted averages of the country-specific prevalences.<br/><br/>Results:<br/><br/>Thirty-eight reports provided quality data for 96 countries on past-year prevalences of violence against children. Base case estimates showed a minimum of 50% or more of children in Asia, Africa, and Northern America experienced past-year violence, and that globally over half of all children—1 billion children, ages 2–17 years—experienced such violence.<br/><br/>Limitations:<br/><br/>Due to variations in timing and types of violence reported, triangulation could only be used to generate minimum prevalence estimates.<br/><br/>Conclusions:<br/><br/>Expanded population-based surveillance of violence against children is essential to target prevention and drive the urgent investment in action endorsed in the United Nations 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda.
