Less than 40 per cent of the women who experience violence seek help of any sort.
Globally, an estimated 736 million women-almost one in three—have been subjected to physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence, non-partner sexual violence, or both at least once in their life (30 per cent of women aged 15 and older). This figure does not include sexual harassment.
In 2021, since the pandemic began, 45 per cent of women reported that they or a woman they know has experienced a form of violence against women and girls (VAWG).
