Gender violence remains a critical issue affecting women, teenagers, and children worldwide, manifesting in various forms, from domestic and sexual violence to human trafficking and psychological abuse. This session will delve into the complexities of gender violence, exploring the social, cultural, and economic dynamics that perpetuate the victimization of vulnerable groups.

We invite researchers to present their latest research, offering an in-depth analysis of the causes and consequences of gender violence. Discussions will cover the physical and psychological impacts on victims, as well as the systemic barriers that hinder reporting and seeking justice. The session will also emphasize the importance of intersectional approaches, considering how factors such as race, class, and sexual orientation interact to influence victimization experiences.

Additionally, effective prevention and intervention strategies will be explored, including public policies, educational programs, and community initiatives. Participants will have the opportunity to discuss and share best practices, fostering a collaborative dialogue on creating safer and more equitable environments for women, teenagers, and children.
