Abstract
The WHO World Report on Violence and Mental Healthl aims to
raise awareness of the public health aspects of violence and to
show how a public health approach can be useful in
understanding and responding to violence. More specific goals
of the Report include describing the magnitude and impact of
violence cross-nationally, summarising information on risk
factors, prevention approaches and policy responses, and
making recommendations for future action and research.
