In Mexico, UNODC carried out technical assessments and conducted training to increase the quality and accuracy of local interventions in crime prevention, victim assistance and support, and violence against women. In 2015, approximately 2,500 public officials participated in these activities.
UNODC launched the Global Study on Homicide, focusing on intimate personal homicide and in particular analysis of women as victims, as part of the broader issue of violence against women. Similarly, the Global Report on Trafficking in Persons presents data and analyses on this crime and its impact on women and girls. Information gathered from about 130 countries around the world shows that globally 70% of victims are females (50% adult women and 20% girls). A new edition will be published in late 2016.
