Summary/Abstract: In the course of the last decade, violence in partner relationships and violence against women are current topics that fill the media space every day and as such, they are very forcefully imposed as a difficult challenge facing society as a whole. Violence in this segment, with all its elements and characteristics, under the influence of various exogenous processes, represents a violation of fundamental human rights to life, safety and dignity. This is precisely why the protection of the physical and psychological integrity of women is the focus of numerous international documents and international standards that aim to combat this problem through systemic changes. The effort to point out the complexity of partner violence in modern society is very important due to the increasing prevalence and new forms of this type of violence. Although numerous activities have already been initiated in terms of the adoption of various legal and normative solutions, framework strategies and action plans, the situation on the ground is still very alarming in such a way that the real problems faced by women and girls, who have suffered some form of violence, are still always in a significant percentage remain unresolved in many significant segments of their lives.
