Presentation
Despite the relevance and persistence of violence against women, there is little evidence on their risk factors. Likewise, victims are homogenized (producing estimates that do not identify heterogeneous subgroups) and are studied without major subnational distinction where social and economic characteristics influence the manifestation of certain risk factors.
Based on the ENDES Demographic and Family Health Survey (2008-2018), patterns of victimization will be identified at the departmental level. Then, in each region and in each pattern of victimization, the factors associated with the violence (physical and sexual) exercised in the last twelve months will be identified.
