THE INFLUENCE OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE'S ON WOMEN'S EMPOWERMENT

Abstract

The killing, torturing, and maiming of women and girls as a result of physical violence, psychological violence, sexual violence, and economic violence is still a widespread problem all over the world. It is one of the human rights abuses that happens the most often. The term "violence" refers to a purposeful and excessive type of hostility, such as the use of physical force or authority, that is threatened against a person, group, or community, and that results in damage, psychological and emotional suffering, rape, torture, and deprivation, or even death. The lives of women and girls in every socioeconomic level throughout the globe are being negatively impacted by violence in modern times. It transcends cultural and religious boundaries and manifests itself in a myriad of different ways. The current research endeavours to investigate not only the many manifestations of domestic violence, but also the factors that contribute to it, the repercussions it has, and the impact it has on the autonomy of women.

Key Words: Violence, Empowerment, Domestic.
