Domestic violence in Europe and Eurasia
While domestic violence is widespread around the world and this region is no exception, 
significant strides have been made to reduce tolerance for domestic violence and increase 
assistance and support for victims.  In the past few decades there has been an increased 
awareness about domestic violence, improved research documenting domestic violence, 
recognition of domestic violence as a violation of victims rights to which governments are 
required to respond, improved legislation and an increase in services for victims around the 
world (UNFEM 2003: 11).  While this has not yet resulted in an end to such violence it does 
demonstrate that with concerted efforts we can make a difference. With adequate funding and 
targeted programming, there is reason to believe that the prevalence of domestic violence in the 
Europe and Eurasia region can be significantly reduced and communities can ensure that action 
is taken to address cases of domestic violence, providing appropriate support to victims and 
taking action against perpetrators.
