A woman at the Family Support Centre in Tari, Hela Province, in the Highlands region of Papua New Guinea. She was attacked by her husband while she was in the shower. Despite having some of the highest rates of violence against women and girls in the world outside of a conflict zone, there are there are only six safe houses in the country. There are no shelters in Tari, which for many women and children, means that after medical treatment, they have no choice but to return to their abuser. This is alarming, considering that partner and family violence tends to be repetitive and often escalates over time.
