Abstract
Violence against women is widespread in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC): nearly one in four women has experienced conflict-related sexual violence and nearly two-thirds have experienced violence from a male partner. Promundo conducted the International Men and Gender Equality Survey in 2012 to understand the causes of gender inequality and violence against women in the country.
