Abstract

Violence against women is a global phenomenon that exists even beyond cultural, geographical, social, and economic context. Violence against women is widespread in terms of physical, psychological, sexual and economic aspects. By categorizing the violence’s against women in different parts of the world Indian women with 10% are facing sexual violence and 35% are physical violence, as compared to Poland women 9.9% are sexual violence and 32% with physical violence. Australian women 8% are facing sexual violence and 25% in physical violence. United States with 7.7% women are facing sexual violence and 22% in physical violence. Death and destruction alter the structure and dynamics of households.To date, attention to the gender impacts of conflict has focused almost exclusively on sexual and gender-based violence. This study based on primary sources of data aims to highlight the ways of how women are facing different kinds of harassments in a continuous process of victimization. In addition, it will also aim to enlighten the need for researchers, therapists, organizations, and judiciaries to evaluate whether individual victims of sexual harassment can be appropriately diagnosed with different psychological problems. However there is still a substantial lack of information and data on the scope and extent of the incidence. Detailed data on women’s experience of violence is needed from researchers in order to better understanding the phenomenon and developing targeted policies and measures to prevent and combat violence.
