520 _aThis report presents the case for a New Zealand national strategy to address all forms of violence against women. The report has been adapted from a British version entitled 'What a Waste' written by Liz Kelly and Jo Lovett. The authors define a number of different forms of violence against women and present data estimating the prevalence and the economic cost of the violence. This material is illustrated by two short case studies that show the ongoing impacts of violence against women. The case for a national strategy is put in the context of human rights and international conventions. Current approaches to violence against women in the government and non-government sector are discussed, prior to the authors showing how an integrated approach might be achieved. The authors consider such an approach would encourage the sharing of knowledge in useful ways, and focus limited resources on strategic planning and service delivery, rather than duplicating work and energy. In the short term, an integrated approach would empower women and girls and ensure punishment and treatment for abusive men, with a longer term aim of reducing and ultimately ending violence.
