Title: 'The Law is There Let's Use It': Ending Domestic Violence in Venezuela

Summary: Violence in the family remains the most common form of violence against women worldwide. Venezuela is no exception. However, a new law, approved in 2007, sets out many of the measures that are most urgently needed to overcome the barriers preventing women from living a life free from violence. Implementation of the law now would provide immediate protection and begin to put an end to the pain and suffering exprienced here and now in homes throughout the country. This report highlights both the promise held out by the law and the measures that the Venezuelan authorities need to take to ensure that the law's potential to protect women is realized.
