Summary:

"While gender-based violence is not new, it has only recently come to the centre of global policy efforts. This book examines three pervasive forms of harmful practices prevalent across the world: child marriage, female genital mutilation, and genderbiased sex selection. The author measures policy progress made by select global programmes towards the eradication of these practices and offers crucial, practical guidance to accelerate change for the future"-- De Gruyter Brill
