‘Honour’-based violence (HBV) is an umbrella term for various forms of abuse perpetrated against a victim because he or she is believed to have done something to bring shame on the family or community. HBV can take many forms, from emotional, financial and sexual abuse through to murder. Victims of HBV are usually women and girls, whilst perpetrators typically belong to the victim’s family and/or community.
