#NoExcuse for intimate partner violence against women in Georgia

Intimate partner violence can take many forms, including:
❌ physical violence
❌ sexual violence
❌ emotional abuse
❌ economic abuse
❌ controlling behaviours

In #Georgia, 1 in 4 women have experienced violence from their intimate partner.  Violence suffered by women in intimate relationships has long-term implications for women’s physical and psychological health and wellbeing and that of their children. Women who are abused have poorer general health and are more likely to suffer from depression and to even consider suicide. It also poses danger to the children of abused women, including their wellbeing and academic performance, which can have long-term impacts on their opportunities in life.

The new study on violence against women in #Georgia is a wake-up call. Let's stand together and say #NoExcuse to any form of violence against women: unwo.men/zeGZ50Qk7CL
