Violence Against Women and Ways to Prevent it

It is clear that dispersed criminal material can not properly prevent or reduce violence. Rather, advocacy mechanisms will only work in the light of a discriminatory and coherent criminal policy; In other words, the protection of potential and at-risk victims, as well as victims of violence, can be achieved through organized and coordinated action by civil society and the government. On the one hand, civil society is the same as NGOs, families, schools and the mass media in raising awareness of women in self-confidence, self-care and changing the dangerous lifestyles of some of them, as well as teaching the concepts of human rights and human dignity to the public. Individuals will play an important role in prevention by reducing violence against women. At the same time, civil society organizations can file a complaint and pursue it by providing adequate facilities for victims of violence. On the other hand, the government in the general sense will take legislative, executive and judicial measures to protect women.
