IPV (Intimate Partner Violence) is a complex and nuanced problem affecting millions of people worldwide. IPV usually begins with young people learning unhealthy attitudes toward dating relationships.

► If they do not see healthy relationship modelling in their parents then teens instead learn dating behavior from their peers or through the media.

Teens in unhealthy relationships are much more likely to: drop out of school; become pregnant; engage in self-harm; become heavy alcohol or drug abusers; and become adults in unhealthy relationships.

By teaching young people what is - and what isn't - acceptable dating behavior, they are able to decide for themselves what type of relationship they want.
