Abstract: What Is Intimate Partner Violence? Understanding the Crisis, Data & Solutions In this article, Robert Kaiser, Gender-Based Violence Expert and author of NEVER A VICTIM , examines the global crisis of intimate partner violence through the lens of data, expert research, and prevention strategies. Drawing on evidence from the World Health Organization, the European Union, Canada, and Australia, he explores the prevalence of physical, sexual, psychological, and economic abuse, the hidden dynamics of coercive control, and the urgent need for systemic solutions. The piece highlights why intimate partner violence is severely underreported, the health sector’s critical role in intervention, and what multi-layered prevention measures can work. Originally published on womens-safety.com , this article provides an evidence-based, survivor-informed resource for policymakers, advocates, and readers determined to end this pervasive form of abuse.
