Slide18The Economic Cost of Gender-Based Violence Survey- 2015
Low levels
of reporting and seeking help affects the economic cost resulting especially if compared with prevalence rates
Loss of potential productivity estimate does not cover the cost for women suffering from emotional distress and how it affects their productivity
Significant proportion of women were either involved in unpaid work or had low wages affecting the monetary value of the for the forgone income
Cost does not account for the cost of the government and its institutions endured to provide subsidized protection and response services (health& social Services), and it does not capture cost of policing and justice
Lost Opportunity costs of missing school days are not captured in full as it did not capture the share borne by the government through subsidizing the education system
