Over the last decade, national and international efforts, including new policy development and activist campaigns, have begun to challenge the practice of honour-based violence and honour killing. Based on a pioneering and unique study, conducted collaboratively by the Centre for Gender and Violence Research, University of Bristol, the University of Roehampton and Kurdish Women's Rights Watch, this book is at the forefront of this new and challenging policy direction.
