A joint publication in The Lancet Public Health (Vol. 11, Issue 4, April 2026). Health systems have a crucial role to play in responding to GBV. Better data leads to better action.
Grateful to all collaborators across the EU-IDB network and EuroSafe members, who made this research possible.

Emergency departments are often the first point of contact for survivors. Understanding the scale and patterns of GBV presentations is essential to building better systems of care, detection, and support.
