Gender-based violence is a multi-faceted public health problem with
numerous consequences for an individual's physical and mental
health and wellbeing. This collection develops a comprehensive
public health approach for working with gender-based violence,
paying specific attention to international budgets, policies and
practice and drawing on a wide selection of empirical studies.
Divided into two parts, the text looks at how public health budgets
and policies can be used to influence a range of risk factors and
outcomes, and then outlines a theoretical and conceptual framework.
The second section draws on empirical studies to illustrate ways of
managing the risks and impacts of, and responses to, the problem.
It concludes by summarising those risk factors that can be
effectively addressed through appropriately budgeted public health
programmes globally. Highlighting ways of bolstering protective and
resilience factors and identifying early interventions, it
demonstrates the importance of inter-agency interventions through
coordinated effort from a wide range of sectors including social
services, education, religious organisations, judiciary, police,
media and business. This inter-disciplinary volume will interest
students and researchers working on gender-based violence, gender
budgeting and public health policy from a range of backgrounds,
including public health, sociology, social work, public policy,
gender studies, development studies and economics.
