| Abstract | Sexual violence in intimate relationships and families is an often-hidden form of violence that occurs across the lifespan and impacts all societies, communities, sexual and gender orientations and is a global human rights issue. Sexual violence impacts not only physical, mental and reproductive health, but also economic and life opportunities, particularly for girls. Reflecting on the scale of this problem, the United Nations has laid out several Sustainable Development Goals, with women's equality and empowerment and the elimination of all forms of violence against women and girls as one of these goals (United Nations, 2017). |
