This book explores the link between Women's economic empowerment and IPV reduction by analysing how economic independence and access to resources empower women to address and escape abusive situations. Examining the systemic barriers that hinder progress, such as cultural norms, legal constraints, and gaps in social protection systems, it offers evidence-based analysis and practical recommendations including microfinance, skill-building initiatives, and community-based programs, to create a vital resource for policymakers, social workers, and advocates committed to creating safer, more equitable communities. Intimate partner violence (IPV) remains a pervasive challenge in the 21st century, profoundly affecting individuals, families, and societies across the globe. Its far-reaching consequences undermine not only the safety and well-being of victims but also broader efforts toward gender equality and social justice. Combining insights from economics, gender, social work, sociology and development studies as well as mental health, this book offers a way forward and will be of interest to all scholars, students and professionals working in these areas.
