N2  - This brief provides background information on the root causes and risk factors that explain why violence against women occurs in the first place. It highlights how the context of COVID-19 is exacerbating those factors and the impact it is having on rates of violence against women and the ability to undertake evidence-based prevention work in the current context. It provides indicative interventions that can be undertaken during social distancing.

The brief draws from the prevention field and evidence-based frameworks. It is a living document that complements other briefs prepared by UN Women on COVID-19 and gender and ending violence against women. (From the website). Record #6636
