Sexual and gender-based violence

This comprises any indicator that measures incidence levels, attitudes, or norms related to sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV). SGBV "refers to any act that is perpetrated against a person’s will and is based on gender norms and unequal power relationships. It encompasses threats of violence and coercion. It can be physical, emotional, psychological, or sexual in nature, and can take the form of a denial of resources or access to services. It inflicts harm on women, girls, men and boys." (UNHCR, n.d.)
