Description | The study shows that while men are usually exposed to violence outside the family, women and girls are primarily the victims of violence in the home and within the family. A wide range of measures have been introduced at the international level over the past 10–15 years, the aim being to start breaking the silence over patriarchal violence and oppression. This study covers the work that has been carried out both internationally and in Sweden, subdivided into five levels of action: Level 1: Addressing and codifying the violence and oppression in conventions, laws and other key documents, Level 2: Clarifying the systematic nature, extent, manifestations and costs of patriarchal violence and oppression, Level 3: Acknowledging and analysing the underlying causes of violence and oppression, Level 4. Developing institutional measures: funding, training, joint action, guidelines Level 5: Operative measures in the form of victim protection. |
