DESCRIPTION:\n	(A/RES/54/134)\n\n\n\n	Violence against women and girls (
	VAWG) is one of the most widespread\, persistent and devastating human rig
	hts violations in our world today remains largely unreported due to the im
	punity\, silence\, stigma and shame surrounding it.\n\n\n\n	In general ter
	ms\, it manifests itself in physical\, sexual and psychological forms\, en
	compassing:\n\n\n\n	intimate partner violence (battering\, psychological a
	buse\, marital rape\, femicide)\;\n\n	sexual violence and harassment (rape
	\, forced sexual acts\, unwanted sexual advances\, child sexual abuse\, fo
	rced marriage\, street harassment\, stalking\, cyber- harassment)\;\n\n	hu
	man trafficking (slavery\, sexual exploitation)\;\n\n	female genital mutil
	ation\; and\n\n	child marriage.\n\n	To further clarify\, the Declaration o
	n the Elimination of Violence Against Women issued by the UN General Assem
	bly in 1993\, defines violence against women as “any act of gender-based
	 violence that results in\, or is likely to result in\, physical\, sexual 
	or psychological harm or suffering to women\, including threats of such ac
	ts\, coercion or arbitrary deprivation of liberty\, whether occurring in p
	ublic or in private life.”\n\n\n\n	The adverse psychological\, sexual an
	d reproductive health consequences of VAWG affect women at all stages of t
	heir life. For example\, early-set educational disadvantages not only repr
	esent the primary obstacle to universal schooling and the right to educati
	on for girls\; down the line they are also to blame for restricting access
	 to higher education and even translate into limited opportunities for wom
	en in the labour market.\n\n\n\n	While gender-based violence can happen to
	 anyone\, anywhere\, some women and girls are particularly vulnerable - fo
	r instance\, young girls and older women\, women who identify as lesbian\,
	 bisexual\, transgender or intersex\, migrants and refugees\, indigenous w
	omen and ethnic minorities\, or women and girls living with HIV and disabi
	lities\, and those living through humanitarian crises.\n\n\n\n	Violence ag
	ainst women continues to be an obstacle to achieving equality\, developmen
	t\, peace as well as to the fulfillment of women and girls’ human rights
	. All in all\, the promise of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) - t
	o leave no one behind - cannot be fulfilled without putting an end to viol
	ence against women and girls.\n\n
