LETTER | Violence against women: a non-domestic perspective

LETTER | We often read or hear of violence against women within their home environment. We are aware of the physical, mental, psychological, and sexual violence the female gender is subjected to within their supposedly safe home.

Most often we are not surprised that such violence occurs and recurs since the various preventive and curative measures undertaken are not always effective. While much attention is given to domestic violence, not much is discussed about violence against the female gender within social, professional, and political contexts.
