This document provides a summary of a project that aims to document and raise awareness of violence against women globally. It will tell the stories of 10 women who were killed as a result of gender-based violence by focusing on their lives and deaths in 10 different countries. The project will explore the various manifestations of violence women face, such as honor killings, domestic violence, rape, and sexual mutilation. It will also profile survivors and organizations working to combat violence. The documentation will be compiled into a website and print exhibition to educate people about the prevalence and impact of violence against women worldwide.
This document summarizes research on female sex offenders from several studies. It finds that female sex offenders exhibited a variety of motivations and relationship types to their victims, including seeing the child as a romantic partner, seeking power and control, or being coerced by a male partner. The abuse ranged widely in severity and included physical violence in some cases. Many female offenders had histories of abuse and dysfunctional relationships themselves. Disclosures of the abuse often did not occur until decades later.
A former child soldier describes how when he was 13 years old, rebels came to his village and killed his older brother for refusing to join their militia. They then asked him to sign up, and feeling he had no choice, he did so in order to avoid being killed as well. He was forced to commit violent acts as a child soldier for years.
This chapter provides background on the author's experience in Haiti where he witnessed a mob attack on a woman. The author was sitting in a medical truck as the attack happened outside but did not intervene. The chapter then contrasts this with two previous occasions where the author was in fights to protect others - once in 1996 helping a woman being choked in an alley in Pittsburgh. It also describes the author's work with a priest in Haiti, loading medical supplies to bring into the dangerous Cite Soleil slum, though he was not prepared for the violence he would witness that day.
The stalking, assault and rape of sarah degeyter: police corruption part iiKeithLankford1
A woman named Sarah Degeyter was stalked, assaulted, and raped in Texas. When she fled hundreds of miles to Fort Worth to escape, the stalking continued, showing the highly organized nature of the stalking program. She believes she was targeted by this gang stalking program due to her stepmother's father's connections to law enforcement agencies like the sheriff's department and FEMA. The document provides evidence of improper and threatening communications from a deputy, as well as a history of corruption and misconduct in the Brazoria County Sheriff's Department. It seeks to spread awareness of the continued stalking and terrorism inflicted on Sarah.

The twenty odd pages that follow are the product of the title above, which says – “A Labour of Love”. The stories are an outcome of my observations on the field through the lens of the legal system and the pyscho-social impacts on the child survivors of sexual violence and their families, during a six week long internship at HAQ: Centre for Child Rights. The experience has been emotionally exhausting and a reminder of the fact that we all live in a bubble at some point of time in our lives.

This document appears to be excerpts from the diary of Christopher Boone, who has Asperger's syndrome. In the first entry, he describes finding his neighbor Mrs. Shears' dog Wellington dead on the lawn with a pitchfork in its stomach. When Mrs. Shears sees Christopher with the body, she calls the police and he is arrested for hitting her. His father bails him out and tells him to stay out of it, but Christopher remains determined to find out who killed Wellington. The second entry discusses the anniversary of his mother's death from a heart attack and his interest in mysteries, as well as his plan to investigate Wellington's death despite his father's warnings.
Midwest Conference: #1 female sex offenders outAnna Salter
This document summarizes research on female sex offenders. It discusses three major groups of female sex offenders: those with victims under 6, those with adolescent victims known to the victim (teachers/lovers), and those initially coerced by male perpetrators. Motivations varied between the groups but included feelings of love, desire for control and power, and seeking approval from male partners. Childhood histories often involved emotional or physical abuse, enmeshment with mothers, and lack of identity formation separate from caregivers. Disclosure of abuse was rare and long-term impacts included mental health issues, self-harm, and sometimes perpetrating violence.

This study compared experiences of safety and trust for male and female immigrant survivors of torture from various countries living in the United States. It found that while both genders felt increased safety due to freedoms and legal protections in the US, they struggled to form trusting relationships due to cultural differences from their communities of origin. However, organizations like TASSC and the Kovler Center provided supports where survivors felt they could build trust with others who understood their experiences.

Exploring the Rainbow: Genders and Sexualities across Culture and Timelisawadephd
From inside one's own culture, gender and sexual orientation usually seem like rather straightforward phenomenon. In cross-cultural and historical perspective, however, there is nothing straightforward about it. This talk is a shallow but broad overview of a range of ways that different groups have organized gender and sexuality. It's an extraordinary tour that will make audiences take another look at their own cultural assumptions.
Nine African American youths were accused of raping two white women after a fight on a train in 1931 Alabama. Eight were sentenced to death despite claiming innocence. Their convictions were later overturned by the Supreme Court in a landmark decision requiring states to provide legal counsel for poor defendants facing capital charges. One of the accused, Clarence Norris, provides a first-hand account of the events leading to their arrest and rushed trial, where they were convicted based solely on the testimony of the two accusers. Norris expresses fear of the mob outside seeking to lynch them and disbelief that the trial was allowed to proceed in such a biased manner.
This document discusses violence against women in India and proposes ways to promote women's empowerment and ensure their safety. It notes that while women have made achievements in various fields, systematic discrimination and issues like inadequate nutrition, limited access to education/health, domestic violence, and sexual violence restrict women's freedom. It provides statistics on crimes against women like rape, dowry deaths, and female infanticide. To address this, it calls for recognizing women as equal partners rather than subservient beings, reducing poverty and gender injustice, and eradicating social evils through sustained awareness of women's rights.
The document describes the author's experience visiting a cemetery in Guatemala on Day of the Dead. They find the atmosphere to be like a party, with families sitting at graves cleaning them and adding flowers. Children are flying kites. Families are having picnics and socializing at the graves. The author prefers this approach to remembering the dead compared to the somber cemeteries in the United States. Guatemalans see it as celebrating both life and death.
Daily Telegraph - 13 November 2006 article on asexualityLea Uva
David Jay is part of a growing number of people who openly identify as asexual, experiencing no sexual attraction to others. As the head of Aven, an organization for asexuals, David seeks to educate others and promote acceptance of asexuality as a sexual orientation. While some asexuals masturbate or experience arousal, many feel no sexual desires and have never had sex. Asexuality exists on a spectrum, and some asexuals seek romantic partnerships without sexual intimacy. Organizations like Aven aim to help asexuals find acceptance and combat myths that there must be something psychologically wrong with them.
1. The document discusses relapse prevention interventions for treating addictions and offenders. It describes the deviant cycle that can lead to relapse and reoffending.
2. Four types of offenders are described based on their approach to offending: avoidant passive, avoidant active, approach automatic, and approach explicit.
3. Treatment should be tailored based on the type of offender, addressing factors like cognitive distortions, deviant arousal, lack of skills or monitoring, and problems with intimacy or regulation. The good lives model can also be used to help avoidant offenders.

This document provides background on the characters and sets up the plot of the story. It describes a bank robbery committed by the Kid Calloway gang in 1868 that left Jack Gifford dead. Thirteen years later in 1881, Seth Watkins arrives in town looking for work and is drawn to Jack's widow Angela and her son Joey. It's revealed that Seth previously infiltrated the Kid Calloway gang as part of his work as a lawman, and that gold stolen during the 1868 robbery is supposedly buried on the Gifford farm, motivating Seth to seek out Angela.
Females are underrepresented in law enforcement careers worldwide due to it traditionally being a male-dominated field. However, females bring advantages to policing such as an ability to relate to victims of crimes like domestic violence and to investigate situations in conservative cultures where males cannot interact with females. While families and cultures often discourage females from pursuing law enforcement, their representation has been increasing as attitudes change and females gain the confidence and support to enter this career path. With recruitment efforts and females serving as role models, their numbers in policing are expected to continue rising globally.
1. The document summarizes research on characteristics of different types of sex offenders, including child molesters, sadistic offenders, and female offenders.
2. It discusses common traits among child molesters, such as deviant sexual arousal patterns, antisocial attitudes, and emotional loneliness.
3. The document also examines characteristics of sadistic offenders, finding they derive sexual arousal from inflicting pain, suffering, and humiliation on victims. Sadists often carefully plan their crimes and target adults and adolescents.
This document discusses gender, sexuality, and their relationship to domestic violence and rape. It argues that these acts are often used to assert dominance and control over women and minority groups. Societal constructions of masculinity teach men to maintain power, and some believe they have a right to sex or violence. However, the document suggests gender and sexuality are social constructs that could potentially be abolished. This may decrease violence by creating a more equal society where people are not divided or treated as property based on these attributes. The document advocates rethinking social order to establish full equality and end the roots of violence.

The document discusses human trafficking and its terrible impact on victims. It describes how traffickers lure victims with false promises of jobs and opportunities, then exploit and abuse them. Victims are beaten, raped, threatened with death, and live in constant fear. Trafficking causes immense physical, sexual, psychological and social harm to victims. It is a horrific crime and serious global problem.
The document summarizes characteristics of different types of sex offenders, including child molesters, rapists, and sadistic offenders. It discusses four main categories that sex offenders may fall into: 1) those with a deviant arousal pattern who are sexually attracted to children, 2) those with antisocial motivations who want sex and violate rights, 3) those who feel loneliness and relate better to children than adults, and 4) sadists who are sexually aroused by pain and suffering. Research findings are presented on characteristics like childhood abuse history, thinking errors, levels of violence, and physiological responses during aggression.

A Village Rape Shatters a Family, and India’s Traditional Silence
By JIM YARDLEY
DABRA, India — One after the other, the men raped her. They had dragged the girl into a darkened stone shelter at the edge of the fields, eight men, maybe more, reeking of pesticide and cheap whiskey. They assaulted her for nearly three hours. She was 16 years old.
When it was over, the men threatened to kill her if she told anyone, and for days the girl said nothing. Speaking out would have been difficult, anyway, given the hierarchy of caste. She was poor and a Dalit, the low-caste group once known as untouchables, while most of the attackers were from a higher caste that dominated land and power in the village.
It might have ended there, if not for the videos: her assailants had taken cellphone videos as trophies, and the images began circulating among village men until one was shown to the victim’s father, his family said. Distraught, the father committed suicide on Sept. 18 by drinking pesticide. Infuriated, Dalits demanded justice in the rape case.
“We thought, We lost my husband, we lost our honor,” the mother of the rape victim said. “What is the point of remaining silent now?”
As in many countries, silence often follows rape in India, especially in villages, where a rape victim is usually regarded as a shamed woman, unfit for marriage. But an outcry over a string of recent rapes, including this one, in the northern state of Haryana, has shattered that silence, focusing national attention on India’s rising number of sexual assaults while also exposing the conservative, male-dominated power structure in Haryana, where rape victims are often treated with callous disregard.
In a rapidly changing country, rape cases have increased at an alarming rate, roughly 25 percent in six years. To some degree, this reflects a rise in reporting by victims. But India’s changing gender dynamic is also a significant factor, as more females are attending school, entering the work force or choosing their own spouses — trends that some men regard as a threat.
India’s news media regularly carry horrific accounts of gang rapes, attacks once rarely seen. Sometimes, gangs of young men stumble upon a young couple — in some cases the couple is meeting furtively in a conservative society — and then rape the woman. Analysts also point to demographic trends: India has a glut of young males, some unemployed, abusing alcohol or drugs and unnerved by the new visibility of women in society.
“This visibility is seen as a threat and a challenge,” said Ranjana Kumari, who runs the Center for Social Research in New Delhi.
In Haryana, the initial response to the rape after it was disclosed ranged from denial to denouncing the media to blaming the victim. A spokesman for the governing Congress Party was quoted as saying that 90 percent of rape cases begin as consensual sex. Women’s groups were outraged after a village leader pointed to teenage girls’ sexual desire as the reason .
Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy's documentary film "A Girl in the River" tells the story of Saba Qaiser, an 18-year-old Pakistani girl who survived an attempted honor killing by her father and uncle. Saba had married a man she loved without her family's approval, so her father and uncle took her into the woods, shot her, placed her in a bag and threw her in a river. Though severely injured, Saba survived and went to court to seek justice against her attackers. The film highlights how honor killings in Pakistan are driven by a patriarchal culture where a man's honor is tied to his female family members' behavior, leading many men to feel justified in murder

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

reasons behind it, the effect it has on health, the economical consequences and how the police
and judicial system deals with the problem.
We will meet survivors in every country and present good examples of work being conducted
against the violence.

Shumaila was abused by her husband for 16 years, unable to divorce since the disgrace would make
it impossible for her younger sisters to find a spouse. When she finally managed to escape with her
six children, her oldest son followed his father’s lead and began to hit her. The son returned her to
his father who locked her up with her in laws that continued the violent circle.

Cause of death: Honor violence
(Lahore - Pakistan)
... The five visitors climb the 49 steps that lead to the entrance of the lawyers’ office. They pass two polished
signs reading ”Asma Jahangir, lawyer, Supreme Court. Hina Jilani, lawyer Supreme Court”. At first, they all
walk without any effort, but as they close in on the office door, the woman who is Samia’s mother begins to
limp. She has hurt her foot, she says, and leans on the bearded man for support. The armed policeman guard-
ing the entrance, Basharat Aziz, allows the group to pass.
25. Samia Sarwar (Lahore - Pakistan)
Facing the reception of the lawyers’ office, the group introduces itself. The staff know that Samia and her law-
yer is awaiting the mother, but asks the older man, who later turns out to be Samia’s uncle Younus, to wait at
the front desk. The mother introduces the tall bearded man as her caretaker, and claims that she needs help to
walk because of her injured foot. The second couple just follows them, and no one objects.
When the door leading into Hina Jilani’s office opens, Samia rises from her chair and turns towards it smiling.
”Mother!” she calls out, and takes a few steps in the mother’s direction. As soon as the elderly woman has sat
down, the ”caretaker” pulls out a gun and shoots. Three bullets pierce through Samia’s body and she falls to
the floor. ...
