And while enacting systemic change is difficult, evidence shows that violence against women can be reduced in years, not generations as previously thought. Mohammad Naciri, regional director of UN Women Asia and the Pacific, said violence against women and girls is one of the greatest injustices of their time, which crosses all borders, generations, nationalities, and communities.
