Abstract

Domestic violence against women is a global problem, widespread throughout the world and transcending cultural and geographical boundaries. All forms of this violence lead to violations of human rights and freedoms. Domestic violence is one of the most common forms of violence that women face in their lives, and it is often much more common than physical or sexual violence by strangers or acquaintances. The main purpose of this article is to thoroughly examine the causes and factors contributing to domestic violence in order to find ways to prevent and combat this practice. The article examines the factors influencing domestic violence, crime victimology, and criminological aspects. Based on the results of the study, recommendations were given for the prevention and combating of domestic violence, what methods and approaches were used to implement these recommendations, how effective they are, as well as an analysis of the current legislation of Kazakhstan and proposed measures to prevent domestic violence.

Recommendations for the prevention of various types of violence include raising public awareness, providing support to victims and toughening penalties for offenders.

It is important to create effective mechanisms that will allow women to safely report cases of violence, as well as to conduct preventive activities among young people to prevent future violence.

The problem of domestic violence in Kazakhstan, as in other countries, requires a comprehensive approach that will include not only tightening legislation, but also changing social norms and values. Educational and social programs aimed at creating a safe and fair environment for women play an important role in this process.
