Abstract: This paper is addressing a theoretical review of the violence against women, as reported and described by world health and human rights organizations, but also by women's advocacy and NGOs for women's rights. There were sketched the main definitions and framing of the acts of violence against girls and women, as well as the effects of violence against women, individually – on the physical, emotional, and mental health of the victim - and socially, in terms of long-term costs in providing support and specialized treatment to victims and their caregivers.
