Global Violence Prevention
Global Violence Prevention is a coalition of individuals and organizations bringing U.S.-based resources to people and organizations in low-income and middle-income countries.
Working with the World Health Organization and its 2002 World report on violence and health, the coalition uses the tools of public health and a science-based approach to prevent violence.
