In India, one out of every three married women have ever experienced physical or sexual violence from their husbands. Violence against women (VAW) is a major public health problem, and has significant and long -lasting impacts on women’s physical and mental health. Health systems have an important role to play in a multi- sector response to VAW. As a result, training of healthcare providers to provide compassionate and effective care to survivors of violence is essential. This video seeks to introduce healthcare providers to evidence based recommendations on how to provide first-line support to survivors of violence though the LIVES approach (Listen, Inquire, Validate, Enhance safety and Support).
