title: Consequences of collective violence with particular focus on the gender perspective--secondary publication.
abstract: There is increasing focus on the gender perspective related to the consequences of collective violence. Women run a greater risk of being victims of sexual violence, but few studies have focused on gender differences with respect to physical violence, sexual violations and the impact on health. Further research is needed on these issues as well as on the identification of evidence based interventions.
