Intimate Partner Violence Against Women in Georgia

This brief draws on findings from the Violence Against Women (VAW) Survey conducted in 2022 by UN Women and the National Statistics Office of Georgia, with generous support from the European Union and the “Making Every Woman and Girl Count – Phase II.”

The brief highlights the prevalence, forms, and underlying drivers of intimate partner violence (IPV) in Georgia to inform evidence-based policymaking and programming. Findings show that one in four ever-partnered women has experienced at least one form of IPV in her lifetime. The risk of IPV varies by women’s age, education, income, and disability status, and its consequences significantly affect women’s mental and physical health.
