This report presents the findings from the OSCE’s qualitative and quantitative study in Ukraine on violence against women.

The study was implemented in spring/summer 2018 and involved:

• fifteen key expert interviews, which provided an overview of issues related to VAW and of conflict-related acts of violence;

• a survey of a representative sample5 of 2,048 women aged 18-74 living in Ukraine to establish the prevalence and consequences of violence using a multistage, stratified, random probability sample design. This includes a booster sample of 298 women living in the government-controlled areas of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions;

• eight focus groups with women from various backgrounds on their attitudes towards VAW;

• four in-depth interviews with survivors of VAW in order to understand, in more detail, the impact the violence they experienced had on them
