Paragraph text
Violence prevention and the promotion of sound evidence, two priority areas addressed by the study, are high on the WHO agenda, as illustrated by the agency's work in the prevention of sexual violence against girls, in the development of new estimates on the prevalence and health impact of child maltreatment, and in the promotion of national surveys in this area. These dimensions gained centre stage at the Fourth Milestones of a Global Campaign for Violence Prevention Meeting, organized in September 2009 in Geneva, in which the Special Representative participated.
