The Caribbean has higher rates of sexual violence than the world average


One in three women will be exposed to and experience gender-based violence in her lifetime, a problem that cuts across all religious groups, classes and cultures.

So says chief of staff in the Office of Global Women's Issues at the US Department of State, Anita Botti during an address to Caribbean journalists attending a reporting tour on women's empowerment and combating domestic violence in Washington DC organised by the Foreign Press Centre.

She said the data from a World Bank and UNiTE Campaign study shows that the Caribbean has higher rates of sex violence than the world average.

She says the problem is not confined to the developing world, as it took almost 20 years for the united states to implement a domestic violence law.

She underscored the point that to deal with gender based violence there has to be a balance with economic empowerment

I always wonder about these international stats, because how accurate and reliable are some underdeveloped countries about record-keeping(or even developed/developing countries, e.g. would it be a priority for China & India?)
