This 2025 snapshot is the ninth annual edition of this publication.

The data reflect the most recent data collected with, in most cases, the WHO methodology, the DHS or MICS domestic violence module. The data presented is the most comparable available, but should not be directly compared without considering several important factors, as explained in the snapshot.

The snapshot includes data from countries in Asia and the Pacific where UNFPA has an operational presence, as well as Australia and New Zealand, reflecting a broader regional context and partnerships in addressing violence against women and girls.
