According to statistics issued by the Ministry of Justice in 2010, the average annual number of reported cases of violence against women was 368 per year for the past 10 years in Kuwait. The actual number is much larger as many women don’t report their cases due to social reasons. As part of efforts to raise awareness about domestic violence against women in Kuwait, the Kuwaiti Women Doctors Group (6abebat) held a workshop on dealing with domestic violence in the healthcare setting at the Faculty of Medicine of Kuwait University.
