Editorial: Ending Domestic Violence against Women in Ethiopia

Abstract

The problem of domestic violence in developing countries started surfacing in the last decade. However, lack of data from these countries still curtails a full understanding of the issues, and the magnitude and potential impacts it has on the life of women affected by domestic violence. Although the existence of domestic violence is well recognized in Ethiopia from anecdotal social and legal reports, no systematic reports were made until recently. Domestic violence against women takes various forms. Physical, sexual and emotional assaults occur at alarming levels. Community based studies in Ethiopia indicated 50-60 % of women experienced domestic violence in their life time
