TY - JOUR PY - 2018// TI - New WHO Violence Prevention Information System, an interactive knowledge platform of scientific findings on violence JO - Injury prevention A1 - Burrows, Stephanie A1 - Butchart, Alexander A1 - Butler, Nadia A1 - Quigg, Zara A1 - Bellis, Mark A. A1 - Mikton, Christopher SP - 155 EP - 156 VL - 24 IS - 2 N2 - Scientific information on violence can be difficult to compile and understand. It is scattered across websites, databases, technical reports and academic journals, and rarely addresses all types of violence. In response, in October 2017 WHO released the Violence Prevention Information System or Violence Info, an online interactive collection of scientific information about the prevalence, consequences, risk factors and preventability of all forms of interpersonal violence. It covers homicide, child maltreatment, youth violence, intimate partner violence, elder abuse and sexual violence.
