Abstract

Violence against women is a phenomenon that has gained increasing interest in the last decades not only because of its individual and social consequences in the lives of women, but also because of the impact that this has on the institutions related to health, safety, and justice.
Victimization surveys are a key tool for collecting crime data directly from victims' experiences, thereby uncovering incidents that often go unreported. It delves into various aspects of crime, not only assessing its prevalence but also exploring the complicated dynamics involved. In addition, the survey examines cases of multi-victimization and its consequences. Through rigorous analysis, vulnerable demographic groups and risck effect can be identified.
This session will focus on measuring VAW through victimization Surveys.
