InternationalInteractions Amidst Gender Discrimination and Aggression

In a concerning revelation, one in three women worldwide experiences gender violence, according to the World Health Organization. This alarming statistic is the focus of a recent research study, published under the DOI doi.org/10.24241/rcai.2017.117.3.7.

The research delves into various aspects of this issue, including its significant impact on development, conflict, public health, and transnational flows. Moreover, it contributes to our understanding of globalization dynamics, particularly those related to gender violence.

Violence against women is increasingly being recognised as an issue of global security. Academic research explores the links between neoliberal development and insecurity, providing insights into the complexities surrounding this global concern.

The study adopts an international relations perspective, examining the response via the mobilization of international institutions for legal and public policy reform regarding gender violence. Transnational social movements have played a significant role in recent years, focusing on women's safety and addressing female violence globally.

These movements include feminist and gender equality movements, such as sexual and reproductive health activism, anti-feminism counter-movements, and migrant women's rights activism within Europe and beyond.

It is important to note that the full text articles of this issue are available only in Spanish language. However, the impact of these issues on the well-being of over a billion female inhabitants cannot be overlooked.

This research underscores the urgent need for concerted global action to combat gender violence and ensure the safety and well-being of women worldwide.
