SRSG on violence against children: Annual report 2013, para. 92
Paragraph
Paragraph text
The implementation of the Study recommendations over the last three years has also helped a better understanding of the multidimensional nature of violence and the importance of maintaining a holistic view of the child in all initiatives for violence prevention and elimination. It is indispensable to address the cumulative exposure of children to various manifestations of violence in different contexts and throughout the child's life cycle. Indeed, for children at risk, violence in the home, the school and the community is often a continuum, spilling over from one setting to another and, at times, persisting across generations.
