Abuse and violence against women constitute a deeply troubling cycle that must be addressed urgently. This vicious cycle often traps victims, leaving physical, emotional, and psychological scars. At White Ribbon Pakistan, we believe it’s vital to understand this cycle to break it. Here are the stages:

Tension-Building Phase: In this initial stage, tension gradually escalates, marked by anger, blame, and emotional abuse.

Explosion Phase: This is when the abuse reaches its peak, leading to physical or emotional violence.

Honeymoon Phase: After the explosion, the abuser may apologize and show remorse, creating a temporary sense of calm.

Reconciliation Phase: The victim often forgives the abuser, hoping for lasting change, but sadly, this rarely occurs.

Breaking this cycle necessitates education, awareness, and intervention. White Ribbon Pakistan is committed to eradicating violence against women. Join us in this crucial endeavor.
