Description
Eliminating Gender-based Violence by Ann R. Taket and Beth R. Crisp is a comprehensive guide to preventing violence and abuse in communities. The book explores how individuals, institutions, and societies can take action to prevent gender-based violence, drawing on current research and practice from around the world. Through its analysis of effective policies and strategies, this book highlights the importance of engaging men in working towards the elimination of gender-based violence, while also placing responsibility for prevention on society as a whole. By examining the construction of programmes that address cognitive, affective, and behavioural domains, the authors offer positive messages that build on men's values and predisposition to act in a positive manner. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in gender studies, women's studies, social work, sociology, law, and health studies. Its unique approach focuses on achieving prevention at the earliest possible stage, examining the issue through a society-wide, but community-focused lens.
