Over the last decade the impact of violence on children has considerably increased. This phenomenon continues to be largely undocumented and unreported. Violence against children remains a real part of the lives of children worldwide with immediate and long-term consequences. Interpersonal violence can take many forms and takes place in a variety of circumstances, including at home, at school, in the community, and on Internet. Similarly, the categories of those who commit violence against children, such as family members, life partners, teachers, strangers and other children, are also diverse. Exposure to violence can have significant effects on children during their development and influences how they will form relationships with others around their childhood and adulthood.
