“…GBV or violence against women is defined as ‘any act of gender‐based violence that results in, or is likely to result in, physical, sexual or mental harm or suffering to women, including threats of such acts, coercion or arbitrary deprivation of liberty, whether occurring in public or private life’ (World Health Organization, 2021; the UN Women, 2016; García Montes et al, 2021). GBV includes different forms of violence against women, such as domestic violence, intimate partner violence, child marriage, female genital mutilation, honour killings, sexual harassment, deprivation of food and aggression against women's sexual freedom (the United Nations Educational, Scientific, Cultural Organization, 2019; Hacettepe University Institute of Population Studies, 2015; the UN Women, 2016).…”
