Gender based violence
Thank you for the clarification. Here are two laws/legislation that citizens can use to fight against gender-based violence:
1. The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005: This law was enacted in India to protect women from domestic violence. It defines domestic violence as any act of physical, mental, sexual, or economic abuse that a woman suffers in her marital or domestic relationship. The law gives women the right to seek protection from violence, including the right to obtain a protection order from a court, the right to residence in a shared household, and the right to maintenance. The law also criminalizes domestic violence and sets out penalties for offenders.
2. Violence against Women Act (VAWA), 1994: This law was enacted in the United States to help victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking. The law provides federal resources to combat domestic violence, including funding for programs that assist victims and training for law enforcement and court personnel. VAWA also created new federal offenses for certain acts of domestic violence and strengthened penalties for existing offenses. The law also includes provisions to protect immigrant victims of violence who may be afraid to come forward due to their immigration status.
