【 摘 要 】

This article presents in brief materials referring to the phenomenon of the violence against women and femicide as well as the intent of understanding its causes in the area of Latin America. According to World Health Organization’s report from 2012 even one thirdof the women worldwide fall victim to this kind of abuse. However, this index multiplies by 2 in the area encompassed by our study. The issue begins at home and ends with abductions and brutal rapes on the streets and in the suburbs, where the culprit is never brought to justice. The main idea of the research is the introduction of the problem, it’s causes, effects but also intents of it’s elimination made by different governmental and non‑governmental organizations.
