Dating abuse can involve physical, emotional, sexual, or online forms of abuse between partners. It affects about 1 in 10 teenagers and 85% of victims are women. Physical abuse may include hitting, grabbing, or pushing. Emotional abuse involves attacking one's self-esteem through insults or isolation. Sexual abuse ranges from unwanted touching to rape, and date rape drugs like Rohypnol and GHB can incapacitate victims. It is important for victims to seek help from counselors or trusted adults and to educate themselves and others about healthy relationships.
This document provides a progress report on the International EMF Project from May 2002 to May 2003. It summarizes activities including scientific reviews of EMF health literature, research coordination, health risk assessments, and standards harmonization. A key activity was a workshop reviewing the effects of heating on the human body, with results published in a special journal volume. Health risk assessments were initiated for static and ELF fields based on reviews of the large literature on static fields. The standards harmonization process incorporated input from scientists in WHO's six regions.
