Essay / Research Paper Abstract
This is a 5 page report discussing acts of violence as a global and local health issue. Reports released by the World Health Organization detail the amount of violence which takes place on a global scale. Despite the fact that acts of violence are often reported as global health issues, the elimination of violence in society must be initiated on local levels. Often international campaigns are undertaken to increase the awareness of child, family and women abuse but it is the follow up health related programs and out reach programs involving members of the health care, social, political, educational and public sectors in communities which enables the establishment of a network to reduce and eliminate acts of violence on local levels.

and as well as obvious negative consequences for any child involved there are also additional factors to take into consideration from a health perspective in that for every child abuse
